"We also want to erect a monument in New Jersey out of respect to
Turkish diplomats who were slain by Armenian terrorists. We held talks

Meanwhile, Hayati Tekin, mayor of Kutlukent town of the northern
Turkish city of Samsun from the delegation of Turkish mayors visiting

diplomats will cost about 300,000 dollars. We, as the Union of Turkish
Municipalities (TBB), will be pleased to pay it," Tekin added.
