    in Turkey


    Azerbaijan, Baku, Oct.16 / Trend News Y.Aliyev /

    The Azerbaijani MPs want punishment of all those who have insulted the
    Azerbaijani flags in Turkey.

    "We informed the Turkish parliamentary commission on foreign policy
    about our concerns over the disrespect against the Azerbaijani flag
    during the Armenia-Turkey football match," the Chairman of the
    Azerbaijani Parliamentary Committee on International and
    Inter-Parliamentary Relations and Vice-President of the Parliamentary
    Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), Samad Seyidov said at the
    news conference dedicated to the results of the Ankara visit on Oct.16

    On Oct.14, 2009, the Azerbaijani flags were seized from the fans
    during the Armenia-Turkey football match held in Bursa city of Turkey.
    The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry submitted official protest note to
    the Turkish Embassy in Azerbaijan in connection with the incident.

    Azerbaijan respects the Turkish flag and demands from Turkey respect
    towards the Azerbaijani flag, Seyidov added.


    There are forces desiring to damage the Azerbaijan-Turkey relations.
    Disrespect against our flag serves to insidious plans of these
    persons, Seyidov added.
