The analytical programs and reports by leading Turkish journalists who took part in the media tour were published by TRT World, NTV, Sözcü TV, Ihlas, Anadolu, T24, Medyascope, Hürriyet, Agos and others, Tsarukyan said.
In addition, the participants of the media tour have been presenting the visit during various radio and television programs.
