/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In September 2006 Hrant Dink, the editor-in-chief of
Akos Turkey-based Armenian newspaper will visit the Krasnodar region
of Russia.
As reported by the Yerkramas, the newspaper of Armenians of Russia,
Dink's visit is private, however he is expected to hold meetings with
the representatives of the local Armenian Diaspora.
As it was reported earlier, the Turkish court of first instance
sentenced the editor-in-chief to 6 months of imprisonment for
"outrage of Turkish national dignity" in February 2006, since in one
of his articles he wrote that "Turks' hostility poisons the blood of
Armenians." At that time the judges decreed that the journalist called
Turkish blood poisonous. However the Court of Cassations concluded
that the accusation against Dink was brought through misunderstanding.
Recently the Turkish Office of Prosecutor General fully acquitted
Hrant Dink.
