March headlined "Turan Morali: 'Turkey may provide military assistance
to Azerbaijan if war starts'."
"If the two countries establish a military alliance, Turkey may provide
military assistance to Azerbaijan in case of resumption of hostilities
[with Armenia]," Turkish ambassador to Azerbaijan Turan Morali has
told APA news agency.
Morali said that the two countries did not have a military alliance,
but stressed that he was not in favour of resolving the conflict
[with Armenia over Nagornyy Karabakh] by means of war. "In any case
the parties need peace," he said.
Morali said that Turkey provides different assistance to the
Azerbaijani armed forces as part of the agreement on military
cooperation.
"Turkey implements different programmes together with Azerbaijan. We
will continue these programmes and provide other assistance this
year. This includes technical assistance, training, etc," he said.
