“Instead of attacking each other’s memories, we must all work together to ensure that truth prevails over fiction” – Turkish Presidency Communications Director Fahrettin Altun
Turkish Presidency Communications Director Fahrettin Altun regarding Italy's parliament motion on 1915 events says"Instead of attacking each other’s memories, we must all work together to ensure that truth prevails over fiction."
“We strongly condemn the Italian parliament’s most recent attempt at distorting and politicising our nation’s history,” Fahrettin Altun said on Twitter. Turkey's position is that the deaths of Armenians in eastern Anatolia in 1915 took place when some sided with invading Russians and revolted against Ottoman forces. A subsequent relocation of Armenians resulted in numerous casualties.
