While President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is seeking by all means to ensure personal power in Turkey on the brink of implosion, a man of Armenian origin, a member of the Great Assembly, said the words that nobody hitherto n ‘dared pronounced in the precinct.

Only to have denounced the Armenian genocide with the word, he returned to the charge Thursday, March 3 at this time denouncing hatred and racism, as reported in Today’s Zaman, Günal Kursun, measuring “Bastards of Armenians” .
