Islamized Armenians in Turkey Are Forbidden To Be Armenians – Hranush Kharatyan

Ethnographer Hranush Kharatyan on her Facebook page writes: “Armenia’s representative to the UN should spread information that Islamized Armenians in Turkey are still forbidden to be Armenians, and their children are not allowed to attend Armenian national schools.

In accordance with the Turkish legislation, there are no Armenians in Turkey, there are Christian followers of the Enlightener who have the right to attend Armenian schools. Therefore, Muslim Armenians have no right to attend Christian schools because they are not Christians.

This information should be disseminated as much as possible in the UN as evidence of the suppression and harassment of the rights of national minorities.”
