LONDON, MARCH 9, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. "The chauvinist
movement in Turkey started to keep progressive and free thinking
intellectuals under its pressure." The English "Independent" daily
expressed such an opinion in the March 8 issue, Istanbul Marmara
daily states.
According to the newspaper, the encroachment upon Hrant Dink was the
most savage murder and the brightest display of the chauvinism wave
gradually increasing in Turkey. "The chauvinist movement now became
a serious threat for all progressive and dissident intellectuals and
historians. This movement is against democratic reforms and membership
to the European Union. This is the reason that made Orhan Pamuk leave
the country," the English periodical wrote.
