Istanbul. Mayis Alizadeh - APA. "Our honorable Prime Minister and
honorable President of Azerbaijan are aware of the talks held with
Armenia.
Turkey can not have an intention to put the problem of Azerbaijan
into the background. I think Azerbaijan is aware of the processes,"
Member of Parliament, representing Justice and Development Party
(AKP) from Kars, Zeki Karabayir told APA's Turkey bureau. Commenting
on the claims that in the secret talks with Armenia, Turkey gave up
the stipulation on release of the occupied Azerbaijani territories,
Zeki Karabayir said his country tried to solve all issues in accordance
with Azerbaijan's interests and by informing it.
"Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia are neighboring countries. We want
peace in the region. In order to establish peace in the region,
Karabakh problem should be solved first of all. I do not doubt
that responsible persons of our state give detailed information
about the processes to Azerbaijan. Presidents, Prime Ministers and
Foreign Ministers always exchange information. Your problems are our
problems. Turkey's problems should be Azerbaijan's problems, too,"
he said.
Member of Parliament, representing Nationalist Movement Party from
Kars, former minister of state Gurcan Dagdash underlined that they
were unaware of the details of the new policy pursued between Turkey
and Armenia.
"This process is under the control of our honorable President and Prime
Minister, Turkish public knows little about backstage moments. Any
policy attempting to put Karabakh problem into the background in
Turkey-Armenia relations will be denied by everyone feeling injustice
towards the people in Karabakh. Turkey's ignoring Karabakh problem in
Turkey-Armenia relations, not putting it as a serious problem before
Armenia is inadmissible.
There are rumours like that in the society. If receding of Nagorno
Karabakh issue into background is a subject of discussions, it will
show that relations between Azerbaijan and Turkey are not sincere. It
does not become to people not to recognize occupation in Nagorno
Karabakh and injustice faced by our brothers in Azerbaijan," he said.
Dagdash noted that Turkey would not compromise to make relations
with Armenia.
"Did Armenia withdraw from occupied lands of Azerbaijan? Did it avoid
demand of lands raised against Turkey? Armenia should implement its
commitments on these three issues before everything. If Armenia demands
concessions from Turkey without elimination of the problems, it means
failure of rulers of Turkey. We hope Armenia to refuse occupation of
lands of neighboring country and recognition of territorial integrity
of the country. We are not satisfied with Armenia trying to occupy
lands of our yard and we are anxious about it. If Turkey compromises
without any steps taken by Armenia, Nationalist Movement Party,
including Parliament will struggle against it everywhere," he said.
