Agos (in Armenian : ???? , " furrow ") is an Armenian bilingual weekly newspaper published in Istanbul , Turkey , established on 5 April 1996.

Agos has both Armenian and Turkish pages as well as an online English edition. Today, the paper has a weekly circulation of over 5,000.

History [ edit ]

Turkish-Armenian Hrant Dink was Agos chief editor from the newspaper's beginnings until his assassination outside the newspaper's offices in Istanbul in January 2007.

Hrant Dink's son, Arat Dink , who served as the executive editor of the weekly, had been co-defendant in the cases brought against Hrant Dink for "denigrating Turkishness" on account of his managerial position at the weekly.

After Hrant Dink's assassination , Etyen Mahcupyan was named editor-in-chief. In 2010, he was succeeded in that position by Rober Kopta? . [1] Arat Dink continued to serve as executive editor.

In 2012, a plan made by the Atsız Youth to attack the Agos headquarters was exposed. [2] [3]

In 2015, Yetvart Danzikyan became editor-in-chief of the newspaper and Aris Nalcı executive editor. [4]
