Valley of the Wolves, the most popular television series in Turkey,
will have a section on the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Upper
(Nagorno) Garabagh, an executive of the company producing the sequel
has said during a visit to Baku.
Mehmet Canpolat, the Pana Film executive, said the long-standing
conflict will be covered by a new film, entitled `Valley of the
Wolves-Garabagh' or Valley of the Wolves-Khojaly', Turkey's Vatan
newspaper reported.
Along with Canpolat, the main cast members of the Valley of the
Wolves, including Necati Sasmaz (Polat Alemdar), arrived in Azerbaijan
on Wednesday. The actors are expected to spend a few days in the
western Gabala district.
The Turkish media have also reported that Sasmaz plans to do business
in Azerbaijan. He is reportedly expected to open a boutique selling
men's clothing and accessories in Baku, with its title being directly
linked to the TV series.
Azerbaijan and Armenia fought a lengthy war that ended with the
signing of a cease-fire in 1994, but Armenia continues to occupy Upper
Garabagh and seven other Azerbaijani districts in defiance of
international law. Peace talks have not yet resulted in resolving the
conflict.*
