State Telegraph Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan
February 17, 2010 Wednesday
After meeting at the Foreign Relations Committee of Turkish Parliament
(GNAT) with the USA ambassador in Ankara James Jeffrey, MP Onur
Oymen stated that the protocols signed with Armenia don`t include
any clause related to withdrawal of the Armenian troops from the
occupied Azerbaijani lands. Armenia, at his words, has no any proof
that the occupied regions belong to Armenia and this occupation fully
contradicts the international law. The statement by the Turkish Prime
Minister is both the position of the Turkish Government and the entire
Turkey, he stressed. Therefore, he underlined, without liberation of
the occupied lands, ratification of the protocols is impossible. We
openly stated it to the USA ambassador, Onur Oymen said.
The Ambassador, in turn, said he would convey parliamentarians`
statement to his government.
Deputy foreign minister of Turkey Ferudin Sinirlioglu and Turkey`s
ambassador to USA Namik Tan discuss the same question in Washington.
