Abstract
The author, after having read the news article "Appointment in Ankara" in Newsweek, wrote a letter to the editor, which was published in the January 23, 1967 issue. The letter stressed that the Soviet Union had no right to guarantee the territorial integrity of Turkey as Armenians rightfully claim part of this territory as theirs. The author added that one should remember that the Armenians were ejected from their homeland of 3000 years and were the victims of the first genocide of the 20* century.
The letter was welcomed by the Diaspora Tashnag and Ramagavar press. However, the Turkish reaction was hostile. The Turkish information Counselor in the USA replied in Newsweek with a letter full of lies. A Turkish journalist, Hikmet Bil, threatened the Armenians of Istanbul. The Istanbul-based Jamanak daily replied. The Turkish Security Council met on several issues including the Armenian Question. Armenians all over the world replied to the Turkish writer Bil, and letters poured into Newsweek in refutation of the Turkish Information Counselor's letter. However, the US weekly did not publish any of them. Three of these letters are presented by the author, who concludes his article with the long letter of Dr. Sarkis Karayan.
