TURKISH JOURNALIST: IF HRANT WAS MURDERED FOR BEING ARMENIAN, I’M ALSO ARMENIAN
Panorama.am
Ahmet Haqan, host at “Neutral Zone” program televised by “CnnTurk”,
focused on the court verdict issued for Hrant Dink’s assassination
case.
Before on air, Haqan posted on his Twitter account that the program
would be devoted to Hrant Dink. But, in fact, it turned out that the
Turkish users of Twitter didn’t approve the journalist’s initiative
and got furious when Haqan claimed all of them were Armenians.
Later Ahmet Haqan appealed to Twitter users saying: “If Hrant was
murdered because he was Armenian, then I’m also Armenian.”
