leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu spoke on Turkish PM Erdogan's apology
regarding Dersim slaughters.
Kilicdaroglu stated that PM's apology is not enough, calling on the

"The documents that Erdogan shows are not new. I read them in 1970s.
Apology is not enough, archives should open. Families deported from

losses. I asked documents from archives but no one gave me them.
Please, make these documents available for public," Kilicdaroglu said.

massacres. "If there should be an apology on behalf of the state I
can do it and I am apologizing," PM stated.
