Organization for Karabakh Liberation: "Turkish leadership should disavow the idea of Caucasus unity"

21 August 2008 [15:46] - TODAY.AZ
"The Organization for Karabakh Liberation disapproves the idea of Caucasus unity of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, his attempts to involve Azerbaijan into this process and an intention to hold talks with Armenia on the said issue", says the statement, released by the Organization for Karabakh Liberation.

The statement says that Armenia holds Azerbaijani lands under occupation, does not disavow its territorial claims to Turkey and continues propaganda of the so-called "genocide" in the world.

The Organization for Karabakh Liberation states that the initiative of the Turkish Premier either deliberately or indirectly aims at justifying the occupational actions of Armenia.

"Unless Armenia gives up its occupational actions, there is no place for it in the Caucasus unit. The leadership of Turkey should realize it and abstain from undesired proposals. We consider that this initiative is bound to an intention to normalize relations with Armenia under pressure of the European Union. By this initiative Turkey attempts to resume talks and relations with Armenia", says the statement.

The organization insists that the Turkish leadership should disavow the idea of the Caucasus unity, which does not serve the interests of either Azerbaijan or Turkey. The Azerbaijani authorities should abstain from this anti-national process.
