    Syriac League: Erdogan apology to Kurds fell short

    November 26, 2011 01:39 AM The Daily Star
    BEIRUT: The Turkish prime minister of did well to apologize to his
    country's Kurdish population earlier this week but the move didn't go
    far enough, according to the Syriac League.

    In a statement, the league said that while the announcement by Turkish
    Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan earlier this week was a cry of
    conscience, `even if late,' the group said that such national
    reconciliations should not be selective. Erdogan apologized Wednesday
    for a bombing and strafing campaign that killed around 14,000 Kurds in
    the 1930s.

    The league wants Erdogan to address similar apologies to Syriacs and Armenians.
