    Three years after Dink's homicide a lot in Turkey has changed for
    the better, Agos daily editor Serkis Seropyan told NEWS.am. "I think
    that much changed from the viewpoint of democracy, openness and
    transparency. Presently, in Turkey people can speak of things they
    could not before Dink's death. Today people demand more," he added.

    Speaking of trial on Hrant Dink's assassination, Seropyan underlined
    that legal proceedings will continue, however Dink's family, relatives
    and colleagues are discontent with the results. He also informed that
    the day Dink was killed -- January 19, protest in front of Agos office
    (where the murder occurred) will be held.

    Hrant Dink was a chief editor of Agos daily -- the first newspaper
    published in Turkish and Armenian in Turkey. He was assassinated on
    January 19, 2007 in Istanbul by a Turkish nationalist Ogun Samast,
    17, near his office.
