Ahead of his visit to Turkey, Altan has penned an open letter to ECtHR President Spano, who is expected to be given an honorary doctorate: “Those who will give you an honorary doctorate are the very people who dismissed me and many other academics.”
One message @ECHR_CEDH shouldn't miss!@MehmetAltanFan: "I taught for 30 years at Istanbul University, where you will be receiving a 'honorary law doctorate.' The people who will be giving you an honorary doctorate are the very people who dismissed me and many other academics." https://t.co/axaACGjyr8
