There is a feeling that the French and Armenians have been left behind,
and some other forces want to harm relations between Azerbaijan and
Turkey, and they should be ashamed, Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan
Hulusi Kilic said at event dedicated to 20th anniversary of diplomatic
relations between Turkey and Azerbaijan.
"People with bad intentions under the guidance and direction of others
want to harm relations between the two countries" Kilic said.
On Jan.23, after eight hours of discussion, the French Senate
voted for adoption of the law criminalizing denial of the so-called
"Armenian genocide".
Some Turkish media unfairly belittle the reaction of Azerbaijan and
blame it in no responding to the adoption of the law.
Kilinc noted that Azerbaijan opposes the adoption of this law together
with Turkey. The Presidential Administration of Azerbaijan, Milli
Majlis (parliament), and civil society organizations have expressed
their protest.
"The instructions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkey states
that in a country where there is no embassy of Azerbaijan, the Turkish
embassies must perform the mission," Kilic said.
Kilinc said, very important meetings and visits have been held between
Azerbaijan and Turkey for over the past 20 years.
"Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline project became the project of
century thanks to the national leader Heydar Aliyev. Baku - Tbilisi -
Kars is also one of the projects of the century" Kilinc said.
Kilinc noted that the trade turnover between Azerbaijan and Turkey
has exceeded $3 billion in 2011.
