The monument honors those involved in an assassination plot against Ottoman Turkish officials whom Armenia accuses of committing mass killings of ethnic Armenians during World War One, which Yerevan considers a genocide.
However, Ankara denies these accusations. Cavusoglu said in an interview with NTV that Turkey would take additional measures if the monument is not removed. (ILKHA)
