According to the statement Armenian step is regarded as the action ignoring international law, APA reports.

"The so-called referendum has changed the constitution of "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" and separatist regime is presented as hegemonic, democratic, legal and social state. Turkey regards this as a result of continuous Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan. Ankara does not recognize the results of the referendum and condemns Armenia’s occupation of Azerbaijani territories. One million Azerbaijanis became refugees as a result of this occupation. Armenia's action brings the results of negotiations conducted by OSCE Minsk Group for the settlement of the conflict to zero."
