Baku, 10 April (AzerTAc. Opening of the border between Turkey and
Armenia contradicts national interests of Azerbaijan, said First
Vice-Speaker of the Milli Majlis Ziyafet Asgarov. He underscored the
problem will be discussed with Turkish parliamentarians who are due to
come to Baku soon.
"The Turkish government has repeatedly said that the opening of the
Turkish-Armenian border depends on the following terms: Armenia should
turn down territorial and genocide allegations against Turkey and free
the occupied Azerbaijani territories," Asgarov said.
"Armenia had not yet complied with any of the abovementioned
conditions, and in this case, opening of the borders can never be
acceptable," he added.
