YEREVAN, MARCH 23, ARMENPRESS: Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s statement on exiling the 100 thousand Armenians living in his country illegally has been accepted by the Turkish society with criticism. Chairman of Turkey’s Liberal-Democratic Party Jem Toker said at today’s press conference that he has not yet read an article published in Turkey, which does not criticize the prime minister’s statement. Even the government-oriented mass media have expressed strict discontent about the statement.
“I am one of those who strictly condemn that statement and consider it unacceptable. Moreover, even if the government makes a decision in accordance with the statement, the Turkish people would resist and would not allow to bring it to life,” J. Toker noted.
The chairman of the Turkish Liberal-Democratic Party pointed out that the statement voiced by the prime minister is a racist and unacceptable approach.
