Turkey blasts US parole ruling for diplomat's killer

Turkey on March 11 "strongly condemned" a U.S. court's decision to release on parole an Armenian national who assassinated a Turkish diplomat in Los Angeles in 1982.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court recently ruled in favor of the release of Hampig Sassounian. California Governor Gavin Newsom has said he will not appeal against the decision.
