With the intensification of the recent conflict in Karabakh, the hatred of the extremist Turkish Gray Wolves Movement towards Armenians increased, especially in Germany according to German newspaper Die Welt.

Accordingly, Turkish extremists recently sent many threatening messages to Armenians living in Germany, as Armenians living in the cities of Hanau, Osnabrück and Hamburg received death threatening messages.

It is reported that there has been a significant increase in the number of these messages, especially after the recent war in Karabakh region.

In this context, lawyer Elias Aoyar told the newspaper that Armenians living in Cologne and Berlin had been threatened with death through calls made from the same phone numbers.

After the threatening letters increased, the Bishop of the Armenian Church in Germany, Serovby Isskhanyan, wrote a letter to the Minister of the Interior of North Rhine-Westphalia, Herbert Roll, in which he expressed the concerns of Armenians living in the country.

Isskhanyan drew attention to the campaigns waged by Turkish extremists who used the conflicts in Karabakh as a pretext.

The German parliament (Bundestag) had approved a joint request submitted by the ruling coalition parties, the Free Democratic Party and the Green Party to ban this organization according to the German news agency.

German domestic intelligence said in a report that the Gray Wolves Movement spread far-right nationalist ideas, indicating that the movement has ties to the National Movement Party in Turkey, which forms a government alliance with the Justice and Development Party, and is headed by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Earlier, the French government banned the Turkish nationalist movement of the Gray Wolves after promoting hatred and committing acts of violence in France.

This organization is considered the most dangerous extremist among the Turkish-sponsored organizations led by Recep Tayyip Erdogan outside Turkey, where it carried out several political assassinations against Turkish and Kurdish opponents, in addition to attempts to penetrate the political and security circles in the countries of the world.
