    YEREVAN, AUGUST 7, ARMENPRESS: A group of Turkish Armenian citizens
    submitted a letter of protest to the UEFA authorities and demanded
    to punish the president of the Trabzonspor Football Club Ibrahim
    Hajiosmanoghlu for making racist statements about the Armenian,
    Greek and Israeli teams.

    As reported by Armenpress, quoting the Turkish Radical Newspaper,
    the head of the Turkish Club recently criticized the meeting of
    the members of the Democratic Party of Turkey with the members of
    the Football Club Fenerbahce, saying in particular: "Their team is
    Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor is not an Armenian, Greek or a Jewish
    team. In a word, Trabzonspor is not your team".

    The protest letter says: "The president of the Trabzonspor Football
    Club Ibrahim Hajiosmanoghlu made racist statements about the Armenian,
    Greek and Israeli teams. Certainly, his words are directed to the
    footballers and fans as well. We demand to punish him correspondingly
    as soon as possible, as these statements contradict the UEFA's peaceful
    and friendly principles rejecting discrimination  and racism".

    In the protest letter the Turkish Armenian citizens noted that they
    will continue the struggle in the social networks as well to make
    the issue sounder.
