Ahmed Davutoghlu "Territorial integrity of Azerbaijan is as sacred
as our own integrity.
The signed protocols will promote the restoration of relations between
Armenia and Turkey and pave a way to peace and ensure territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan. The protocols have already been submitted
to the parliament and it is for parliament to decide when to ratify
them", ANS-TV quoted Turkish FM Ahmed Davutoghlu as saying answering
the question of the Turkish deputy from opposition People's Republican
Party Janan Aritman.
"The events that occurred in the Caucasus in August 2008, proved that
the situation threatening to security, stability and interaction, is
prevailing in the region. In this view, we have proposed the Caucasus
Stability and Cooperation Platform and invited all the countries which
are parties to the conflict, including Armenia, to join the platform.
We have initiated a dialogue with Armenia which has accelerated
recently. The Turkish-Armenian protocols signed on October 10 are
not harmful for the Azerbaijani interests", he said.
Janan Aritman asked whether Nabucco project will be stopped with the
opening of the Turkish- Armenian border. When answering the question,
Davutoghlu said Nabucco project has nothing to do with normalization
of relations with Armenia.
