Turkey will never expose Azerbaijan to danger, Turkish Ambassador to U.S. Nabi Shensoy said.
Addressing the meeting dedicated to Armenia-Turkey normalization in Zurich, the Turkish ambassador stated that Ankara will try to target this plan not against Azerbaijan, but for its benefits.

Turkey and Armenia will sign a protocol on normalization of the relations in the Swiss city of Zurich on Oct. 10.

"We do understand sensitivity of Azerbaijan. But we have given a promise to Azerbaijan and we will never take a step against our closest ally," said the ambassador.

The Turkish diplomat said Ankara's aim is to establish peace in the South Caucasus.

"The events of the recent years added new problems to the frozen conflicts in South Caucasus. Turkey wants to create stability in the region. One of our main interest is our fraternal Azerbaijan," the ambassador added.

The Turkish diplomat also noted that now the fact that both the Minsk Process and the Turkey-Armenia normalization are happening at the same time is very important.

"Even if this process is not connected, they complete each other. Both processes must be solved soon and they will have not negative, but a positive impact on each-other," Shensoy said.
