    AZERI PRESIDENT URGES UNITY AMONG TURKIC COUNTRIES

    Anatolia news agency, Ankara,
    18 Sep 06

    Kemer/Antalya, 18 September: [Passage omitted] "Turkic world can only
    be strong if it acts in unity", said Azerbaijani President Ilham
    Aliyev who took the floor at the 10th Turkic Societies Friendship,
    Brotherhood and Cooperation Congress in Mediterranean city of Antalya,
    on Monday [18 September].

    Aliyev said that Turkic republics were founded after collapse of
    Soviet Union and they established serious and sincere relations with
    Turkey, adding that these republics have now been transformed into
    major economic powers.

    He also preached that Turkic republics should boost their relations
    and cooperation with Turkey.

    Noting that Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline is a proof showing how
    relations between Azerbaijan and Turkey are important, Aliyev said
    that there are other projects which will be implemented within the
    same framework.

    Regarding the anti-Turkish and anti-Azerbaijani activities of the
    Armenian lobby, Aliyev reminded that Armenians, who keep Azerbaijani
    lands under occupation, also demand territory from Turkey.

    Aliyev said that Azerbaijan will not allow an Armenia to be established
    on Azerbaijani territory.
