expressing their anxiety about the damage inflicted by the Metsamor
nuclear power plant operating in Armenia sent a letter to the Agos
Armenian newspaper of Istanbul presenting their claims connected
with the nuclear power plant. With the letter they invited Armenian
children of the same age to Igdir on April 23 to exchange opinions
and anxiety and to take part in some events. To recap, April 23 is
marked as Independence Day and Children's Holiday in Turkey.
According to the Milliyet, the letter, which was published on April
8 in the Agos newspaper and has received no response by Armenian
children so far, read: "The Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant operating
in Armenia poses great danger for both Turkey and Armenia. In order
to protect people living in Turkey and Armenia from that danger we,
children, by means of Agos weakly have invited children of our age
from Armenia. But we are sorry that we failed to reach any result."
