Quotes

"With hopes of being able to talk our language, to teach our children our own culture, we want to continuously repeat our priority request to the Government of the Republic of Turkey. The transmission of our culture to the future depends on broadcast television in Circassian. This will ensure Turkey as the center of the worlds Circassians. Secondly, we would like education in the mother tongue starting from the first grade of elementary school. 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, however long... Because it is only given in the 5th and 6th grades. This is not enough. We want Circassian education from first grade onwards. And when we convey this through organization, I believe our elders will approach with sensitivity. INCIDENTS IN SOCHI SUMMARIZED: A DISTORTION Arguing that the genocide implemented 149 years ago continues today, Istanbul Circassian Association Chairman Tuguj Halis Din said, the Olympics to be held in Sochi are an example of this. The Olympics to be held in 2014 in the ancient capital of Circassia, with the tagline 'Gateway to the Future' and efforts to market it as Russian territory, are far from being ethical. The forgetting of the Circassian name in the introduction to the Olympic stage and other efforts is a summary of the incidents in Sochi thus far, historical distortion and cultural genocide. Specifying that Russia has been bringing up bureaucratic obstacles for Circassians seeking to return to their homeland after suffering in Syria over the last 2 years, Din explained that 10 thousands of Circassians living in Syria and wishing to escape from the civil war have been prevented from receiving visas."
"'Iron Silk Road' will be established with the Kars-Tbilisi-Baku Railway Project with the cooperation of Turkey, Azarbaijan and Georgia. This project will allow to reach as far as Middle Asia and China. Kars-Tbilisi-Baku Railway Project will serve as a railway corridor and it is aimed to carry 6.5 million tonnes of load between Europe and Asia in the first year."
