Ali Bayramoğlu (born 1956), is a Turkish writer and political commentator. He was a columnist in the Turkish daily newspaper Yeni Safak, writing from a liberal pro-Islamic viewpoint.[1] He has campaigned against ultra-nationalism,[2] militarism[3] and restrictions on Islamic political parties[4] in Turkey, and in favour of greater recognition of,[1] and accommodation with, the Kurdish population of Turkey,[5] and a break with what he sees as Ottomanist tendencies which prevent Turkey from moving forward on issues such as the Armenian genocide.[6] He has also warned against the possible rise of left-wing political violence in Turkey.[7]
