Writer repeats Turk deaths claim
Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk has stood by controversial remarks he made about Turkey's killing of Armenians during World War I and Kurds in the 1980s.
- 個人的には、パムック氏がトルコのEU加盟のかなり熱心な支持者らしいことに関心を引かれました。*1
Mr Pamuk, a keen supporter of Turkey's EU entry bid, said he "cannot image a Turkey that does not dream of being part of Europe" any more than he can imagine "a Europe that defines itself without Turkey" (ibid).
