Statement by the Hon. Irwin Cotler, MP (Mount Royal), Opposition
Critic for Human Rights
January 22, 2007
I would like to express my shock and deep sadness at the tragic
assassination of journalist Hrant Dink. This action was an assault
on democracy and freedom of expression - the ultimate silencer.
As editor of the bilingual Turkish-Armenian Agos newspaper, Mr. Dink
was one of Turkey's most prominent Armenian voices and someone who
sought dialogue and reconciliation between Turks and Armenians while
remaining faithful to his journalistic credentials.
I hope the perpetrators will be brought to justice and that any
incitement against those who speak of the genocide of Armenians will
come to an end.
