Azerbaijan has declared three conditions before giving its consent to
the normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia, as reported
by Hurriyet Daily News.
Azerbaijan sent an envoy recently to Ankara to explain the
government's views on the reconciliation process between Yerevan and
Ankara. According to the envoy, Azerbaijan insists on three conditions
to give its green light to opening the borders:
1 - Armenia should withdraw from five of the seven regions surrounding
Nagorno-Karabakh - Agdam, Fizuli, Jabrayil, Zangilan and Qubadli.
2 - The return of the southern portion of the Lachin corridor.
3 - The use by Turkey of the Lachin corridor.
The Lachin corridor connects Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia. By enabling
Turkey to also use the Lachin corridor, Azerbaijan wants to have
direct land access to Turkey.
