Turkish press is shocked by the statement published in popular Taraf
daily, saying that it is a recognition of Armenian Genocide and
serious accusation against Turkish people.

"Armenians were massacred in Ottoman Empire in 1915 and conscience
does not allow us to deny it. We condemn that injustice and share pain
of our Armenian brothers. We protest against Erdogan’s intention to
use needy Armenians as hostages and consider his statement immoral."
