TURKISH INDUSTRIALISTS AND BUSINESSMEN ASSOCIATION CONDEMNS HARASSING
SCIENTISTS TRYING TO DISCUSS ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
YEREVAN, JUNE 6. ARMINFO. TUSIAD President Omer Sabanci claimed that
tolerating the illegal courses will fuel rumors in Europe that Turkish
secularism is weakening. According to Zaman, TUSIAD Representatives
criticized the government fiercely regarding the EU process in the
Istanbul meeting . Sabanci opposed the restriction of freedoms in the
new Turkish Penal Code (TCK), police brutality in demonstrations, and
harassing academics who discussed the Armenian Issue. TUSIAD, as a
business association, does not accept any alternative but full EU
membership. Discussion over Quranic study courses occurred in an
association advisory council meeting for The Turkish Industrialists
and Businessmen Association (TUSIAD) Friday, June 3.
It should be noted that May 25-27, a conference entitled "Armenians in
the period of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire: problems of
scientific responsibility and democracy" at Istanbul University was
cancelled under pressure of the Turkish Government.
