ArmInfo. Garo Paylan should change the party. The chairman of the commission on culture, education and social issues of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (PABSEC), member of the Mejlis of Turkey Metin Gundogdu, said this on April 16 in an interview with journalists in Yerevan.
According to him, Paylan represents a political force that promotes fascism, it is a nationalist political force. "I think that Garo Paylan made the wrong choice and chose the wrong party. He represents the pro- Kurdish <Democratic Party of Nations>. It seems to me that it will be right if he changes the party," he stressed. According to him, Turkey treats Armenians very well. "Do not doubt, the Turkish authorities are very positive towards the Armenian population of the country. And we are making every effort to avoid acts of vandalism against Armenian cultural and historical monuments. Historically, various peoples and ethnic groups lived in Turkey, and the authorities do everything possible for them preservation. Many Armenian churches in Turkey are open, for example, the Akhtamar church. The country's cultural heritage is very important for us, "Gundogdu concluded.
