/PanARMENIAN.Net/ «North Cyprus and Nagorno Karabakh issues are different
problems.» This was reported in the course of a round table titled North
Cyprus and Nagorno Karabakh Issues in the International and Legal Planes
held in Baku September 19. The event held with the support of the World
Organization of Young Turkish Writers and the Azerbaijan-Cyprus Friendship
Society. The participants discussed common problems Azeris and Turks have,
those in the history of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, «occupation
of Azeri lands by Armenians.» They also considered the approaches to these
issues from the point of view of international legal principles. Head of the
World Organization of Young Turkish Writers Akper Goshaly reported that
after the visit of the delegation of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus
to Azerbaijan, the attention to the Republic has increased, while the Greek
party started putting pressure upon Azerbaijan. A. Goshaly reported that
«interested forces, especially Armenia, try to identify the North Cyprus and
NK issues.» Chairman of the Azerbaijan-Cyprus Friendship Society Agil
Samedbeyli noted that demonstrating their commitment to peace at a
referendum held in the Island of Cyprus, Turks reported their desire to live
with Greeks in a common state, however, Greeks refused. Samedbeyli also
stated that «one cannot present NK as a third party as Armenians are trying
to attain.» Lawyer Farman Salmanly reported that «NK is an inseparable
territory of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan got UN membership having NK as its part
and all states of the world recognized the territorial integrity of our
country. The Island of Cyprus is not a subject of international law and the
Greek Cyprus was recognized only from one part of the island. According to
international law principles, the inseparable part of Azerbaijan - Nagorno
Karabakh - and North Cyprus cannot be equated.»
