    YEREVAN

    YEREVAN, MARCH 2, ARMENPRESS. After the publication of the new symbol
    of Turkish currency different Turkish mass media noticed and registered
    its similarity with the Armenian dram's symbol, Armenpress reports
    citing Turkish mass media.

    The Turkish dailies register that the similarity of the Turkish lire
    with the Armenian dram is obvious. The author of the symbol Tulai
    Lale rejected any similarity with the Armenian dram as well as the
    allegations that the symbol includes the first letters of the name
    of Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan.

    The symbol of Turkish lire raised a wave of criticism. Turkish
    political and art figures criticized the new variant of the symbol
    of Turkish currency. Graphic designer Bulent Erkmen stated that the
    letters "L" and "T" are not placed correctly in the new symbol. He
    and another Turkish designer stated that it has many similarities
    with the Armenian dram. The designers say the new symbol "does not
    inspire trust".
