Passage of so called Armenian genocide resolutions in Foreign Affairs Committee of U.S. House of Representatives and Swedish Parliament caused conflict between two Armenian communities in Nice, France.
The conflict emerged between Turkish-Armenian community which opposes Armenian genocide allegations and Lebanese Armenian community which supports bringing so called Armenian genocide on the agenda. Two groups started to argue after two groups wanted to prevent each other's entry to the Armenian church where Armenian Community Association's elections would be held.
Calling Turkey's Armenian citizens as "dirty Turks", Lebanese Armenians attacked on Turkish Armenians. One Turkish-Armenian community member is hospitalized following the fight.
Armenian community has delayed the elections indefinitely.
