YEREVAN, JANUARY 19, ARMENPRESS:Turkish intellectual based in Germany Ali Ertem told Armenpress that the murder of the chief editor of “Agos” weekly issued in Istanbul Hrant Dink has been organized by the Turkish authorities. “It was a political murder. Armenians living in the Turkish state do not have guarantee for life,” Ertem said. According to him, a country which wants to become member of EU must not act in that way. “Turkey must change its policy, its current actions do not promote the process of membership to EU. After the murder of Hrant Dink the opportunity of Turkey’s membership to EU lessens more,” Ertem said.
