on an official visit to Turkey at the invitation of Turkish Chief of
General Staff Hilmi Ozkok. Our special correspondent Matanat Agamirli
has more:
[Agamirli, over the telephone] Rasad, as you know, the delegation led
by Abiyev met Ozkok yesterday [4 October]. The sides discussed
bilateral relations and cooperation.
Abiyev also held meetings at military units. But I would like to draw
your attention to the meeting between Abiyev and Ozkok. Ozkok pointed
to Turkey's sensitive approach to Azerbaijan's Nagornyy Karabakh
problem, adding that Turkey had always supported Azerbaijan.
Noting that Azerbaijan relied on Turkey, Abiyev thanked Ozkok for
close cooperation.
The Azerbaijani delegation left for Izmir today. More meetings will be
held at military units there. Turkish President Ahmet Necdet Sezer is
expected to meet Abiyev tomorrow.
This is all for now.
[Presenter] Thank you, Matanat.
