Question on “Armenian atrocities” removed from exam list in Turkey

A question on “Armenian atrocities” was removed from the list of exam questions in Turkish schools, following a considerable number of complaints.

Earlier, the national education department at Bakırköy district issued a list of exam questions containing those on “Armenian atrocities.”

During the exams, the ex-chair of Confederation of Public Sector Unions Sami Evren left the exam room in protest to racist questions on the list, Vatan Turkish daily reported.
