(ANSA) - Rome, February 5 - A protester was hurt and two were
arrested when police clashed with demonstrators protesting
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's visit to Rome Monday.

Killer', tried to stage an unauthorised march towards the
Vatican, where Erdogan was being received by Pope Francis.
The police, in riot gear, baton-charged them and stopped
them.
The demonstrators were protesting human rights conditions in
Turkey, where Erdogan has repeatedly cracked down on opponents.
