Erdogan is a man of strong words, while two of three are pretty good, the third one messes things up, reads the article by Mustafa Akyol in Turkish Hurriyet Daily News. The author calls the Premier’s recent statement about deportation of 100.000 illegal Armenians living and working in Turkey “something just terrible”.

According to Akyol, Turkish Premier is quite a vagrant politician yet being illiberal to criticism in media. Scalping “fascist mentality” he strangely voices statements about deportation.

The author tries to reveal Erdogan’s true colors, saying that seeking for Islamist dictatorship under the cover of democratization he wants to have Turkey an EU state or something akin to it.

In conclusion, the journalist quotes “Turkey’s most prominent Armenian intellectual” Etyen Mahcupyan, whose article published in Taraf daily says, “Most people look at the reformism of the AKP, compare it with other parties, and give the government more credit than what it deserves. But the AKP is a result of liberalization rather than being its driving force. On the other hand, it has the blocks, worries, fears, and the state reflexes caused by its position as the governing party in Turkey. That’s why its attitude on the Armenian issue is increasingly falling behind the ethical norms of the Muslim camp… [Yet] as Turkey’s Muslims build the self-confidence to face themselves, the dullness of the party which represent them will also decrease.”
