Member of Parliament of Turkey Janan Arytman (Canan Aritman) demanded that President Abdullah Gul has passed a DNA test, and thus proved that there are no Armenian blood. This writes the newspaper Hurriyet.
Arytman, which represents the opposition Republican People's Party, earlier hinting at is that the president's mother is Armenian. She claimed that the roots of the Armenian president may be the reason why he has not been strongly criticized the recent initiative of the Turkish intelligentsia, offering an apology for the massacre of Armenians in 1915.

Gul, commenting on this initiative, refrained from harsh criticism. He said that Turkey should develop relations with neighboring countries. "We must engage in dialogue to resolve problems which exist between us and our neighbors," - quoting his newspaper Today's Zaman. Rumors about his alleged Armenian roots, he has rejected, saying that his family and the maternal and paternal lines are the Turks.
Arytman in reply said that the tree, which cited the president can not serve as sufficient proof of its origin. It also demanded that he clearly stated that Turkey is not obliged to apologize for anything or to whom. Otherwise, she said, Gul should resign. The deputy also reported that the president planned to quit in the shoes (for example a journalist metnuvshego in the shoes of George Bush) to bring public attention to this issue.
According to the Hurriyet, many politicians, including those representing and Republican People's Party, Janan Arytman been criticized for such behavior. Her party meanwhile refrained from taking any disciplinary action.
