Yesterday was the first anniversary of Hrand Dink’s killing in front of Agos weekly. News agencies and different media outlets have reports from Turkey. Thousands of people have once again gathered in Istanbul, carrying signs “we are all Armenians”.
BBC’s Sarah Rainsford has a piece on Hrand Dink and why he is considered a controversial figure in Turkey, still a year after his death. There is a dark tone in the article by karin, Hrand’s friend saying:

“It was one of the darkest years, but what can we do? We have to go on. But I have no reason to be hopeful.”
