@@zahithunerli3963 Ask him what? He is Armenian and he never denies it. Daron Acemoğlu was born in Istanbul, to Armenian parents. He is the only child of Kevork Acemoglu (1938−1988), a commercial lawyer and lecturer at Istanbul University, and Irma Acemoglu, principal of Aramyan Uncuyan, an Armenian school in the Kadıköy. He attended an Armenian school in Istanbul and after that graduated from Galatasaray High School.

@@Mourad1m hahaha you obviously dont understand how it works. If he was born in Istanbul, he is Turkish. In Turkey, we dont care about peoples ethnic background. Everyone who is born there or chooses to live there can all themselves Turkish or Turk. Stop being a racist.
