"In any case any Turk remains a Turk. At its core, neither an Armenian,
nor a Turk change," said research associate of Center for Armenology
Studies of Yerevan State University, Kathy Gundakchyan.
If you ask any Turkish 'what is Turkey?' he will say of 'World has 7
parts which are Turkey", when only 6 parts exist. Here is as followed:
Turkish people take the Moon for world's seventh part.
When asked about number of Armenians in Turkey, Kathy Gundakchyan
said is complicated to voice the real number. "They say, nearly 100
000 Armenians live in Turkey, while I learnt from Constantinople
Patriarchate of the Armenian Apostolic Church that for about 60-70
thousand Armenians live merely in Istanbul. There are no any stats
related to other Turkey's regions," she said.
She also pointed that men can hardly take Turkish citizenship while
women can become Turkey's citizens via marriage. Armenians in Istanbul
live in fear and wonder how Armenians which come from Armenia step
the Turkey's streets without fear.
"Armenians from Istanbul know, if something happened, traditionally
neither statements would be brought into world as President would
say he was absent from country and has no idea."
Speaking about 'hidden Armenians'-related matters, that is, those
Armenians who were forced into Islam, the positive stuff is that they
only marry with 'hidden Armenians', thus, remaining Armenians.
In Armenian-Turkish relations a common ground's finding is necessary
for cooperation, says Kathy Gundakchyan. "There are people realizing
parents-made crime while there are many others who think that no
matter how important pan-Islamism ideas are, it is not still time to
view them."
