    THE SYRIANS THAT FOUND SHELTER IN TURKEY RETURN BACK FOR FEAR OF THE
    RETRIBUTION

    AZG DAILY #87, 14-05-2011


    By Hakob Chakrian


    In May 7 issue of "Azg" an article was published that was entitled as
    "The Turkey's intervention in the regional political developments is
    directed from Washington". We have mentioned that the Turkey's role is
    limited to the assignment to ensure the continuity of the US regional
    policy. Prime Minister Erdogan's call "listen to the people's voice"
    that was addressed to Syrian President Bashar Assad served as a basis
    for this opinion. By this call he was repeating the US President and
    saying "people" he understood "rebels". At the same time we did not
    exclude the anti-Turkish mood in Syria after Egypt and Libia.

    Even rebels, apparently, have been already appeared in such mood. To
    make sure of it we can refer to "The Syrians want to back" publication
    in yesterday's issue of "Dunia bulteni" agency website.

    According to the agency, the Syrians' number reaches to 270. On April
    29, crossing the border, they asked for asylum the Turkish authorities
    in Hatay (Alexandretta sanjak) region. They claim that upon their
    return to Syria they would be retributed. Their request was accepted,
    and they were even sheltered in a tent camp in Hatay, which was set up
    for Syrians by the Turkish Red Crescent. However, these Syrians
    sheltered in Turkey once again appealed to the Turkish authorities on
    the evening of May 11 requesting permission to return back to Syria.

    It is noteworthy that while the Syrians, who "escaped the retribution
    of the authorities", are asking for the permission to return, "the
    solidarity platform with the Syrian people" is going to organize a
    protest in front of the Syrian consulate in Istanbul after Friday
    prayer for "welcoming the Syrians' adequate resistance to the
    authorities and condemnation of the Syrian regime for the
    destruction".
