Report on the forced exile of the remaining Armenians from Aintab and Marash, November 15, 1922

BRITISH CONSULATE
ALEPPO,
15 November 1922

My Lord,

SITUATION IN TURKISH DISTRICTS NEAR SYRIAN NORTHERN FRONTIER.-

I have the honour to report that on November 8 the Turks gave notice to the Armenians of Aintab & Marash and of the district, stretching Eastward to Birejik, that they must all leave the country in a month. This is done in pursuance of the policy that no Christians are to be allowed to stay in Turkey.

Aintab which formerly held 40000 Armenians now contains only 3000.

The French Consular Representative in Aintab, Mr. de Sandfort, has been transferred to Adana and has not been replaced.

I have the honor to be,
With the highest respect,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
Humble servant
(signed) James Morgan
Consul

I am a Turk.
But i love you Armenian.
Do you speak Turkish! Türkçe bilen birisi var mı aranızda.
Biz sizi bu kadar severken neden siz bize karşı bu kadar kırıcı oluyosunuz.Halbuki biz sizin atalarınıza saygı gösterdik.Genocide ise asla olmadı yani soykırım felan yok.İnsanları kendinizden nefret ettiriyosunuz.!915 te yapmadıklarımızı buğün bize yaptırmaya mı çalışıyorsunuz?
O halde söyliyeyim bizim size gücümüz yeter.Ve biz kızdığımızda uluslararası hukuk felan bizi durduramaz.Erivan'da taş üstünde taş omuz üstünde baş bırakmayız.Bilen bilir.Sizde bilin.

I don't understand turkish, thus I didn't understand a word you said.
You love Armenians? Your nickname suggests otherwise.
And please use the 'general discussions' section for general ENGLISH talk. This is the archive forum.
