ANKARA: The Turkish government on Thursday said a Turkish-Armenian adviser to Prime Minister Ahmet Davutogou had “retired”, days after he caused a furore within the ruling party for describing the mass killings of Armenians during the Ottoman Empire as genocide.
The government denied any link between the departure of Etyen Mahcupyan and the looming 100th anniversary on April 24 of the start of the 1915 killings of Armenians, which Yerevan regards as genocide.
