Boghos Posted June 7, 2001 Report Share Posted June 7, 2001 RAID ON SO-CALLED HOTEL Anadolu News Agency07 June, 2001 RADIKAL (LEFT) The Tourism Ministry cancelled the tourism management licence given to Victor Bedoyan, an Armenian citizen who opened a hotel in eastern Van province. The Ministry said that the conditions have changed while Bedoyan will file a lawsuit in the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). Bedoyan got the licence and two-star plate for his hotel named ''Vartan'' which means victory in Armenian language, from the Tourism Ministry a week ago. The Ministry cancelled the licence in a week. Tourism Minister Mumcu said that the licence was cancelled because Bedoyan made some arrangements contrary to the licence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 8, 2001 Report Share Posted June 8, 2001 Boghos this news was a very interesting news, have you more information about it?For example did he also wanted to arrange an Armenian tour to those Eastern regions of contemporary Turkey. If that could happen it would have been very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghos Posted June 8, 2001 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2001 I know of at least an instance where a group of Armenians from the diaspora went on a tour of Armenian sites in Anatolia, from Armenia (through Georgia, well understood). The mayor of Kars apparently arranged for a police escort of this group, these were ethnic Kurd. This was related to me by a participant. As to the objectives of the owner of Hotel Vartan, I really have no more details. But this issue was apparently well discussed in the Turkish press.
