Azerbaijan, Baku, 26 August /corr. Т R.Novruzov / The USA supports
Turkey's initiative to establish Caucasus Union.
"We support Turkey's initiative and find it interesting," the
U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan Ann Derse briefed the media on 26 August.
She did not comment on the essence of the alliance, saying that yet
the USA has not received an official text of platform of the Union.
The Prime Minister of Turkey, Rajab Tayyib Erdogan, made an initiative
to establish a Peace and Stability Platform in Caucasus, which will
unite five countries, and held initial talks with Georgia, Russia
and Azerbaijan.
The recent events in South Ossetia make it important to establish a
platform of peace and co-operation in Caucasus, Erdogan said.
"In format of "Five", discussions will be held with Armenia
as well. This week a meeting will take place between the Foreign
Ministers of Turkey and Russia, after which the form of discussions
with Armenia will be determined," Erdogan said.
