Turkish ambassador to Azerbaijan: Turkey's aim is to liberate Nagorno Karabakh

12 June 2009 [15:54] - TODAY.AZ
Turkey wishes liberation of the occupied lands of Azerbaijan.
Turkey will not open borders with Armenia, unless the lands are liberated, said Turkish ambassador to Azerbaijan Hulusi Kilic, speaking at the round table on the topic "Azerbaijani-Turkish relations in the regional geopolitical context" organized in the Center of Strategic Studies.

"20% of Azerbaijani lands have been under Armenian occupation for already 18 years. Evil wishers attempted to make the two fraternal states argue, spread information about the possible opening of the Turkish-Armenian border. Yet Prime Minister's visit to Azerbaijan has made the situation clear.

The world got convinced that Turkey will never leave Azerbaijan and open borders with Armenia unless the territories are liberated from occupation", noted the ambassador.
