    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.
