    Azerbaijan reaffirmed that Turkey gave a note to Azerbaijani Foreign
    Ministry.

    Turkey on Wednesday gave a diplomatic note to Azerbaijan over removal
    of the Turkish flags in front of the Council for Religious Affairs
    of the Turkish Embassy in Azerbaijan.

    Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Spokesman Elhan Polhov reaffirmed that
    Turkey gave a note to Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry.

    Workers of municipality removed the Turkish flag in front of the
    Council for Religious Affairs without making any statement.

    Turkish flags in front of Turkish Martyrdom, Turkish schools and
    various Turkish buildings were removed after Azerbaijani flags were not
    allowed in the football match between Turkey and Armenia on October
    14 played in western province of Bursa, following a FIFA decision
    not to allow flags of third countries in the stadium.

    Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned Azerbaijan on Tuesday against
    provocation in bilateral relations.

    "The Martyrdom Mosque in the Azerbaijani martyrdom is what really hurts
    us. I believe that our Azerbaijani brothers will very well assess what
    hauling down of the Turkish flag in the martyrdom meant," Erdogan said.
