ARMENIAN TURK DENIES EXISTENCE OF “ARMENIAN PROBLEM”
Entitled “Armenian author: I am more of a Turk than many others” by
Turkish daily Hurriyet website on 23 September
Speaking at a panel discussion, Armenian author Levon Panos Dabagyan
has said, “All of us are Turks in this country. I am more of a Turk
than many of the others. God willing, I will fight against them if a
war breaks out with Armenia.” Dabagyan received a standing ovation
for what he said.
A seminar entitled “All aspects of the Armenian problem and
historical facts” has been held at the central headquarters of the
Turkish Metal Workers’ Trade Union. Panelist Dabagyan, who is a
Turkish citizen of Armenian origin, said that no Armenian problem
exists and noted that the problem had been fabricated. Describing
themselves as Christian Turks, Dabagyan asserted, “All of us are
Turks. If there are foreigners amongst us, then they should see the
pain I suffer from. It is the pain of a Turk.”
