DASHNAKTSUTYUN CALLS ON ARMENIANS WORKING IN TURKEY TO LEAVE COUNTRY IMMEDIATELY

Those who compare Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's
statement on deporting Armenians living illegally in Turkey with
the deportation of Armenians in 1915 are not right, said Armenian
Revolutionary Federation (or Dashnaktsutyun, ARF-D) parliamentary
faction leader Vahan Hovhannisyan at a press conference today.
"In 1915, Turks were massacring Armenians living in Turkey. While
today, the talk is about Armenians who have gone to Turkey for
work," said Hovhannisyan, calling on all those Armenians in Turkey
to immediately leave Turkey and return to Armenia or go to other
countries.
Prosperous Armenia Party representatives Aram Safaryan did not share
Hovhannisyan's view, saying that it was not due to a political urging
that those Armenians went to Turkey. Thus, in his words, it is not
for a political urging either that they should leave Turkey.
In turn, ruling Republican Party of Armenia parliamentary faction
leader Galust Sahakyan thinks that there is no need to instill a
"syndrome of fear" among Armenians in Turkey and to consistently say
that "the Turks may create an environment of blood for Armenians."
