    WHO TAKES ADVANTAGE OF ARTO TUNJBOYAJYAN'S NAIVETY?

    "My brother has written a number of significant songs for Turkey
    and has contacts with numerous Turkish composers and presidents, but
    he didn't write the Turkish national anthem," says BBC World Music
    Award winning artist, musician Arto Tunjboyajyan in response to the
    question of one of the readers of "A1+".

    The "A1+" blog invited Arto Tunjboyajyan for an interview last week
    and Arto was ready to answer our reader's questions on his political
    views expressed through his lyrics, thoughts on the nation and the
    genocide, the rumors about his album released in Turkey and the ban.

    "I am currently in Los Angeles and am working on the HUMAN ELEMENT
    project. I will probably come to Yerevan soon, but it is hard there. I
    even bought a house in Kolakar and started remodeling, but stopped. I
    hope that everything will work out for me and I will finally move
    back to Armenia permanently," says the musician who hasn't been in
    the Homeland for two years running. As for the album "We are against
    hatred", Arto says that it was banned in Turkey not only for the song
    dedicated to Hrant Dink.

    Our readers are interested in knowing about Arto's concerts during the
    "Heritage" party's political campaign and his political views, as well
    as the opinion that the current administration is using Arto's naivety
    for its own purposes. You can find the answers to these questions on
    our blog at http://a1plus.wordpress.com/.
