ARFD calls on Armenians to leave Turkey immediately
14:32 / 03/19/2010ARF Dashnaktsutyun faction leader Vahan Hovhannisyan
called on Armenians of Turkey to leave the country immediately,
considering Erdogan's recent statement an alarm to nationalists to
take concrete actions.
`It is welcoming, when RA Foreign Minister tries to respond to
Erdogan's words, but I think he'd better reply to statements by the
U.S. Secretary and UK Foreign Secretary who attempt to hamper Genocide
recognition internationally in every possibly way, seeking to
discredit the fact of Genocide,' he underlined. ARFD leader also
criticized Edward Nalbandian for drawing parallels between the recent
developments in Armenia-Turkey relations with last century's events.
`Presently, Turkish Premier threatens to deport Armenians illegally
working in the country, but in the beginning of 20th century the
situation was dramatically different. Armenians owned that territory,
they lived in their motherland, while Turks had migrated there and
lived a poor, vagabond life,' Hovhannisyan noted.
The other day, Turkish Premier Erdogan threatened to deport 100.000
Armenians illegally working and living in Turkey.
