00:04, 05.12.2014

The recent statements by Etyen Mahcupyan, the Istanbul-Armenian
journalist and writer who was recently appointed as the Senior Advisor
to the Prime Minister of Turkey, have caused discontent among the MPs
of the country’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

The Office of the President of Turkey and the AKP deputies have
expressed complaints to PM Ahmet Davutoglu and demanded that he sack
Mahcupyan, reported Sozcu daily of Turkey.

The ruling party MPs were very concerned by the PM senior advisor’s
statements, according to which the people believe that AKP members
were involved in the 2013 corruption scandal in Turkey.

On December 17, 2013, simultaneous operations were conducted in
several locations in Turkey, and it came to be called the Grand
Bribery Operation. AKP ministers’ sons, businessmen, and officials
were detained during the operation and, subsequently, many of them
were arrested.
