MFA WARNS HALACOGLU

Prof. Dr. Yusuf Halacoglu, chairman of the Turkish Institute of
History (TTK), said that he wouldn’t give testimony within the scope
of the investigation launched by Swiss authorities about himself for
telling in a conference in Switzerland that there was no such thing
as Armenian genocide. “This will mean accepting their parliamentary
decision,” said Halacoglu. Meanwhile, Ministry of Foreign Affairs
(MFA) warned Halacoglu that he should not go to Switzerland.
