ANKARA: `1915 Ottoman-Turk Armenian Tragedy of the War Period´ Symposium to be Held in Edinburgh

Sunday, October 23, 2005

A symposium entitled "1915 Ottoman-Turk Armenian Tragedy of the War
Period" will be held in Edinburgh, Scotland, on October 24.

Retired Turkish Ambassador Gunduz Aktan and Professor Norman Stone
of Koc University in Istanbul will deliver speeches at the symposium
organized by the Federation to Fight Against the Unfounded Armenian
Allegations (ASEF) and the Britain Turkish Associations Confederation.

Images of Turks massacred by Armenian guerillas in CDs and DVDs seized
by the Scottish police on Saturday at noon at the Stanstead Airport
will be shown, if the problem is solved, to the participants of the
symposium, which will be held at the Edinburgh City Hall.

The Edinburgh City Council had put a motion recognizing the alleged
"Armenian Genocide" to vote on 2 June 2005 as a result of an 18-month
propaganda activity of Armenian lobbies but the voting had been
suspended due to counter initiatives.

The Edinburgh City Council had approved the right of the Turkish
community in Britain to organize a symposium on the events of 1915
from their own perspective thanks to negotiations carried out by the
Britain Turkish Associations Confederation.
