    TURKS SEND A LETTER TO PRESIDENT BUSH

    RADIKAL- The Assembly of Turkish-American Associations (ATAA) sent a
    letter to US President George W. Bush on April 24th, which was
    considered the anniversary of so-called Armenian genocide. ATAA
    called on President Bush to commemorate not only Armenians, but all
    innocent people who lost their lives in those days because of armed
    attacks, relocation, starvation and epidemics.

    ''We appreciate your efforts to maintain impartiality about such a
    tragedy in the Ottoman Empire. Armenians collaborated with Russia and
    France in order to found their own states in eastern part of Turkey.
    They massacred tens of thousands of Turkish, Kurdish, Arab and Jewish
    people. In return, the Ottoman government adopted the Relocation Law
    to take Armenians away from the war zone,'' ATAA said in the letter.
