    Members of the Turkish Parliament's Friendship Group with Azerbaijan
    are planning to visit Baku to inform Azerbaijan's press and public
    about the recent developments between Turkey and Armenia, according to
    Mustafa Kabakçı, head of the group.

    "We are going to go to Azerbaijan to inform them as we see that there's
    information pollution there," Kabakçı said Friday, the Anatolia news
    agency reported. He said contrary to Azerbaijani press reports,
    Turkey's policy has not changed.

    "Our efforts to solve the regional problems peacefully and to develop
    cooperation in the region continue. Turkey has always been on our Azeri
    brothers' side," he said. Both President Abdullah Gül and Prime
    Minister Recep Tayyip ErdoÄ?an have several times assured Baku that
    Turkey's sensitivities over the Nagorno-Karabakh problem remain same,
    Kabakçı said.

    "We believe that our brotherhood [with Azerbaijan] will strengthen," he
    said. The date of the visit will be set next week.

    Also, Turkey has prevented a group of Azerbaijani journalists from
    traveling to Kars, an eastern Anatolian town on the border of Armenia,
    to protest Ankara's talks with Yerevan to open the border, which has
    been closed since 1993, Hurriyet Daily News reported.
