Turks to sue Armenians
2005-04-25
IGDIR - Igdir Mayor Nurettin Aras has indicated that his office has started working on finding out the Turks that were forced to evacuate their homes and land in Yerevan during the First World War and the 1930s. ''Some of the Turks moved to Igdir. We are now closely working with local administrations in Igdir to find out the names and number of Turks who were forced to evacuate their homes in Yerevan,'' said Aras.
Aras added that the Armenians massacred hundreds of Turks. ''We will firstly find out which Turks were forced to flee Yerevan. Once we know the names of Turks forced to leave Yerevan, we will be filing legal action against the Armenians,'' told Aras.
What, no right of return?

#3  Consider that if the Turks had stayed, in a decade they would have been in the Armenian SSR under Stalin. Best to be happy with the way things actually came out.

#2  Might not be such a bright idea to start keeping score there, Mister Mayor. Could come back to bite ya...

#1  Aras added that the Armenians massacred hundreds of Turks.

By existing in such numbers that the Turks dropped dead of exhaustion during the rape and slaughter.
