Ankara. Mayis Alizadeh ` APA. `Our relations with Azerbaijan have been
and will remain strong. We are one nation. The recent efforts for the
normalization of Turkey-Armenia relations demonstrated Turkey's good
will to establish peace in the Caucasus. Turkey and Azerbaijan have
done their best for normalize the situation in the region. And what
has Armenia done? Armenian Constitutional Court's decision on the
protocols revealed everything. The decision of the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs also shows that Armenians' position has not changed,'
spokesman for Turkish parliament's Commission on Foreign Affairs,
member of Justice and Development Party (AKP) Metin Yilmaz told APA's
Turkey bureau. He mentioned that tens of thousands of Armenians were
illegally working in Turkey.
`If we want peace in the region, Armenians should withdraw from the
occupied territories. I do not think the protocols will be brought to
the agenda of the parliament. If they are brought, I will vote against
the protocols. Our position has always been so. If the Congress wants
to pass a decision on the `genocide' claims, let it do it. We will
also redeterminate our direction. Turkey has large potential. We will
attach importance to the extension of the relations with the
Turkic-speaking countries,' he said.
