That way, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is trying to trample the secular Kemalist ideology holding “Republican People’s Party”, as well as the pro-Kurdish “National Democratic Party”, where our compatriot aro Paylan is a deputy”, said a regional expert, Sarkis Hatspanian, referring to the Turkish Justice Ministry’s recent requirement to deprive an Armenian deputy of the pro-Kurdish “National Democratic Party” of Turkey, Garo of immunity.
“Regarding Paylan, it should be noted that there is no reason to deprive him of parliamentary immunity. It’s absurd. I think he expresses a strict attitude towards the Armenian question in Turkey, so becoming the Turk nationalists’ “eyesore””, said the expert. Sarkis Hatspanian believes, that the process of immunity deprivation and arrest of the deputies will take place gradually, “They will choose whom and how”.
