TURKEY OBJECTS PUBLISHING LAND RECORD DOCUMENTS OF
OTTOMAN EMPIRE
The Internet version of "Huriet" touched upon the limitations
for the publications of the land record documents of the Ottoman
Empire. In particular, Turkey's National Security council objects the
translation of the abovementioned documents from the Ottoman Turkish
into the modern Turkish language. They condition their position by
the concern that the documents may be used for political or ethnic
goals, including the claims concerning the Armenian genocide.
Turkey's National Security Council sent a special letter to the
relevant land administration bodies of the country urging them to
keep them the documents in secret without letting anyone publish them.
