Turkish Premier Erdogan’s statement in London on possible deportation
of 100.000 Armenians from the country put large part of Turkish
opposition against him. In this case the matter is about Deniz Baykal,
leader of Turkish opposition, holding majority seats in the parliament.
At the Republican People’s party Council session inter alia Prime
Minister’s statement was discussed as well. "Erdogan’s words are
unacceptable, dangerious and improper. People came to work cannot
be used as bargaining chip, it conflicts with people’s rights,"
Baykal said.
As it became known, the party’s session decided to demand that
relations with Armenia will be put on Turkish Parliament’s agenda.
Interestingly, from the very beginning of Armenia-Turkey reconciliation
Baykal’s party was opposing the process without settlement of Karabakh
conflict in advance and always demanded to recall the Protocols from
Turkish Parliament.
In addition, Erdogan’s statement aroused serious concern of Armenians
illegally working and living in Turkey, Turkish Netgazete website
reports.
Turkish daily presents opinion of several residents of Kumkapi
district, Istanbul who claim that do not wish to leave Turkey and
ask Erdogan not to deport them.
