    PanARMENIAN.Net - A representative of Turkey's opposition Republican
    People's Party (CHP) Aydin Ayaydin met with the Patriarchal Vicar of
    Constantinople, Archbishop Aram Ateshian.

    As Mr. Ayaydin noted at the meeting, CHP will protect Turkey's national
    minorities' interests. "This is a party line which does not depend
    on religion, race or language," Hurriyet quoted him as saying.

    The Archbishop, in turn, stated that Armenian community is expecting
    help and support on behalf of CHP.

    Parliamentary election in Turkey is set for June 12. aëò Justice
    and Development Party headed by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
    holds the leadership, followed by Republican People's Party (CHP)
    and nationalists which may overcome a 10% barrier.
