hear in south america,armenians speaking turkish 
 
Don't trust what you hear.
 
Most of the "Rum"s, in Anatolia knew Turkish, 1/5 ratio of speaking Turkish that you gave doesn't sound logical.
 
And they came after exchange treaty between Turkey and Greece, not after anything else.
We gave up your happiness
Your hope would be enough;
we couldn't find neither;
we made up sorrows for ourselves;
we couldn't be consoled;

Gentlemen:
 
As a heads-up, let's finish this thread.  After 16 pages and 320 posts, the discussion is bogging down in minutia, and becoming pointless.
 
Make your final comments and I'll be closing this thread tonight.
 
Thanks.

As my final observation, I just would like to express my gratitude to all the Bulgarians, Turks, Armenians, Kurds and Greeks for sharing their opinion and perspective on us, the Turks in Bulgaria. Smile

Well, before the thread is closed, I'd like to say that it was a very interesting and, hopefully, constructing topic with only one disadvantage: damn too much information! With the few time I can spend in the net, I never got to read even half of all the things in here! And there were some pretty interesting argues, which I, unfortunately, missed...

I totally agree with you.

Defeat allows no explanation
Victory needs none.

If it's indeed to everyones' liking why does the topic need to be closed? The discussion is not breaking any rools. I think the Moderator is overdoing it.

And they came after exchange treaty between Turkey and Greece, not after anything else.
 
It is logical,since those 200.000 were speaking only Turkish.The rest could probably speak the language,but also Hellenic.
 
Most of them came after the destruction of Smyrna in 1922,hunted by the Turkish forces.Only a  part came with exchange.
