A court has fined Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan for calling
a monument to Armenian-Turkish friendship a "monstrosity" and ruled
that Erdogan must pay 10,000 liras to Mehmet Aksoy, the sculptor of
'Monument to Humanity', Hurriyet Daily News reports.
When serving as Turkish prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan called
the monument to Armenian-Turkish friendship "monstrous" during a
visit to the Kars region in 2011.
The 30-meter-high monument to Armenian-Turkish friendship was
demolished on Erdogan's order due to the fact that it was located in
a conservation area.
