Question: How would you comment the disgraceful comment of Erdogan by which he considered the fact of being called Armenian as an insult?

Answer: Such racist statements do not bring honour to anybody, particularly to a head of a government.

It is appalling that the author of that statement is doing it during a pre-election period, thus expecting that it might get extra votes.

Exactly such statements are breeding fertile ground for crimes motivated by ethnicity, as was the murder of Hrant Dink.

Such expressions of racism lay in the roots of genocide implementation and the latter’s denialism.
