REPUBLIC OF TURKEY MINISTRY OF CULTURE AND TOURISM.The Definition And Purpose Of Relocation (Tehcir) (неопр.). — «The Arabic originated word "tehcir" means "emigration / immigration", it definitely does not mean "deportation" or "exile". Hence the law commonly known as the "Tehcir Law" is the same as "Temporary Law On The Military Measures To Be Taken For Those Who Resist The Governmental Acts And Supplementation's." The word used to explain the implementation in line with this law is "tenkil" in the Ottoman language and means "transport- not the equivalent of "deportation", "exile" or "proscription" in Latin originated languages.» Дата обращения: 9 августа 2007.
