"I am surprised by the charges because I am a defendant who has been convicted and what is more natural for a convicted defendant than to appeal and try to influence the court that tries him?" Hrant Dink, editor of the bilingual Turkish-Armenian weekly Agos said in remarks quoted by AFP
«Iznenađen sam optužbama zato što sam optuženo lice koje je osuđeno i šta je prirodnije od toga da se osuđeni optuženik žali i pokuša da utiče na sud koji mu sudi», rekao je Hrant Dink, urednik dvojezičnog tursko-jermenskog nedeljnika Agos u izjavi koju je preneo AFP.
