Turkey’s only Armenian village risks losing status

November 23,2012 16:48

The most important news from Armenia on Telegram

A recent draft law on restructuring municipality borders will affect the special status of Turkey’s only Armenian-populated village. Located in the southern province of Hatay, Vakıflı, which consists of 135 residents, will lose its “special” status with the new law.

Speaking to the Hürriyet Daily News, Vakıflı community head Cem Çapar said the survival of the village was very important both for them and Turkey’s image. “We hope our rights will be preserved in accordance with the law,” Çapar said.

“The new law proposes villages in the new metropolitan municipalities be turned into districts. This means Vakıflı will lose its village status, so we will no longer be the only Armenian village of Turkey. We conveyed this subject to Hatay Governor Celalettin Lekesiz, with Justice Minister Sadullah Ergin also present,” Çapar said.
