    February 28, 2014 | 00:04


    Turkey's pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party's (BDP) Assyrian MP
    Erol Dora introduced a bill to the country's parliament on making an
    amendment to the citizenship law inTurkey.

    The bill envisions the granting of Turkish citizenship to the
    descendants of those who were deprived of their citizenship for
    different reasons after the dislocation in 1915, Demokrathaber website
    of Turkey reports.

    Dora explained what the descendants need to submit to be granted
    Turkish citizenship, and he pointed to the respective list.

    Erol Dora also noted that famous Armenian artists William Saroyan and
    Aram Dikran had wished to be buried in the lands of their forebears,
    but even this was denied for them, and he stressed that the new bill
    will somewhat rectify similar mistakes.
