the Turkish people and state. According to him, the movement became

stable and right principles. Turkey should insist on returning Turkic

are states of the same nation. The Turkish politician is sure Turkey
and Azerbaijan should be together until Azerbaijani lands occupied
by Armenia are liberated.
