    ARTAK SHAKARYAN: THE NAMAZ TO BE ORGANIZED BY TURKISH NATIONALISTS IN ANI MOTHER TEMPLE IS NOTHING BUT A PR ACTION

    YEREVAN

    YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 30, ARMENPRESS: The namaz to be organized by Turkish
    nationalists in Ani Mother Temple is nothing but a PR action, Artak
    Shakaryan, specialist in Turkologist told Armenpress, adding that
    on the eve of parliamentary elections in Turkey in 2011 the Turkish
    nationalists are trying to get dividends.

    "With this step the Nationalist party headed by Devlet Bahceli is
    trying to show that they are preservers of real ideas of Turkish
    nation," he said, adding that in parallel with it they discredit the
    authorities labeling them as traitors, explaining it that "see you
    allow Armenians to conduct liturgy in Surb Khach thus we have right
    to do namaz in Ani Temple."

    Artak Shakaryan said that this issue is not being widely discussed
    in Turkey as it is being done in Armenia and it is understandable as
    "they are going to do it in our Ani, in our Mother Temple."

    The Turkologyst also noted that this action may also be addressed to
    a target electorate, for instance to the population of Kars, as Kars
    is traditionally considered one of the centers of Turkish nationalism.
