Turkish president Abdullah Gul's office said he will visit Azerbaijan
this week, days after his landmark trip to Armenia. (UPDATED)
Gul's spokesman said the president will travel to Baku on Wednesday to
discuss his weekend talks with the Armenian head of state in Yerevan.
Turkey recognizes Armenia as an independent state but never established
diplomatic relations and closed the border with that country in 1993
after Armenian troops invaded Nagorno-Karabakh, an Azeri territory.
The spokesman said Gul will return to Turkey on Wednesday evening.
