The gathering counting thousands in the Liberty Square started when
the funeral of Hrant Dink was held in front of the editorial office
of Agos in Istanbul. A requiem service was offered in the Mother See
of Holy Echmiatsin for the rest of Dink's soul.
Participants of the action in the Liberty Square were holding
condemning slogans reading "We are all Hrants" and "Turkey, is it the
way to European Union?" The participants were noting that Dink's
assassination will not silence the free speech and the historic
justice should win. Those who have convictions and faith are not
lonely. They have millions of supporters in Armenia and the whole
world. Dink's life and work was presented, his acquaintances and
friends told memories.
"We mourn and believe that at last the idea will win," said RA Deputy
Foreign Minister Gegham Gharibjanyan. In his words, this dirty crime
shocked the whole world, everyone condemns the felony. "Everyone
will benefit if nationalism is not endorsed," said the Deputy
Foreign Minister.
US Charge Chargé d'Affaires Anthony Godfrey characterized Hrant
Dink's murder as a great loss and expressed his condolence to all
Armenians of the world. He expressed hope that the tragedy will
be an opportunity to move forward, improve the Armenian-Turkish
relations and open the border. In response to the question whether
it will promote the recognition of the Armenian Genocide, Anthony
Godfrey noted that "the question is being discussed in Washington."
US representatives will attend the journalist's funeral in Istanbul.
