    Azerbaijan's ruling party considers the Turkish President's visit
    to the country as an important event, and notes that this visit
    has special significance for the development of relations between
    the countries.

    "Azerbaijan and Turkey are strategic partners and allies. Both
    countries' interests are so close that each state always focuses on
    the interests of the other side," New Azerbaijan Party (NAP) Deputy
    Executive Secretary, MP Mubariz Gurbanli said in an interview to the
    official website of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party (NAP), commenting
    on the significance of the Turkish President Abdullah Gul's upcoming
    visit to Azerbaijan.

    According to Gurbanli, in connection with recent events it once again
    became evident that Turkey and Azerbaijan are making joint efforts
    to achieve peace and stability in this region.

    He said the Turkish state's delicate attitude towards the
    Nagorno-Karabakh problem, which occurred as a result of the Armenian
    aggression against Azerbaijan, is very important for Azerbaijan. No
    changes are observed in Turkey's position on this issue.

    "Since the occupation of Kelbajar by Armenia in 1993 Turkey severed
    diplomatic relations with this country-occupier. Once again I want
    to note that Turkey has always spoke in support of Azerbaijan in
    this issue. And despite the West's pressure regarding the opening of
    borders, Turkey has stated that the borders will not be open until
    Armenia ends its occupation policy," Gurbanli said.

    According to him, the heads of states, officials of Turkey and
    Azerbaijan always make reciprocal visits.

    "Naturally, in addition to all this, there is a need for regular
    meetings of Azerbaijan and Turkey's heads for the further development
    of our relations, for discussion of the situation in the region, in
    the international arena and other issues. President Abdullah Gul's
    upcoming visit to Azerbaijan arises from a need to discuss current
    issues at the level of the two brotherly countries' presidents. The
    Turkish-Azerbaijani relations, cooperation in economic, political
    and other spheres will be discussed during the visit," Gurbanli said.

    President Gul will pay an official visit to Azerbaijan August 16-17.
