October 30, 2010 | 12:55
On the occasion of Republic Day (Turkish: Cumhuriyet Bayramı), the
youth wing of the opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) organized
an exhibition of caricatures entitled `Outcasts of Justice and
Development Party.’
The CHP leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu, who participated in the exhibition,
stopped at a caricature depicting weeping Recep Erdogan, his wife,
Vice-Premier Bulent Arinc, the former Interior Minister Abdulkadir
Aksu and Fethullah Gulen. A question was written below: `Whose tears
are insincere?’
There was a map among the exhibits entitled `Privatized Turkey’ with
Turkish provinces that `passed’ to different countries. Particularly,
eastern provinces were depicted under Russian and Armenian flags. The
Armenian part of Turkey was marked by the logo of the Petkin
petrochemical company.
The visitors were also attracted by the caricature of Recep Erdogan in
Hitler’s style.
