The Armenian apology campaign launched by a group of scientists,
writers, artists, journalists and representatives of nongovernmental
organizations was discussed at the meeting of Foreign Relations
Commission of Turkish parliament on December 17.
Parliamentarians from opposition parties Republican People's Party
(CHP) and National Movement Party (MHP) offered to make a statement
condemning those supporting the campaign, the Azeri Press Agency said
quoting some Turkish media reports.
Member of MHP, parliamentarian Canan Aritman called the organizers of
the campaign betrayers. "False scientists signing it should apologize
to Turkey," she said.
Aritman also criticized President Abdullah Gul's attitude about
the campaign. Saying that Abdullah Gul was encouraged by his visit
to Armenia, Aritman dropped a hint that the president's mother was
Armenian.
"We see that the president supports this campaign. Abdullah Gul should
be the president of the whole Turkish nation, not of his ethnic
origin. Investigate the ethnic origin of the president's mother,
and you will see," she said.
Some claim that Abdullah Gul's mother was born to an Armenian-origin
family from Kayseri and father was an Arab moved to Kayseri.
