"Turkey, being exhausted by the European Union and pretending to secure freedom of speech solved the issue in a typical way. Hrant Dink was killed by those, who did not want to hear the truth," Armenian political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter when commenting on the killing of the Agos editor. In his words, the murder was committed by the forces which do utmost to keep the truth about the Armenian Genocide "under lock and key".

In his opinion, Nobel Prize winner Orhan Pamuk's life is also under threat. The writer was also accused in compliance of Article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code.
