BAKU (A.A) - Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bekir Bozdag has said that
Upper Karabakh was a Muslim Turkish Azerbaijani land.
Bozdag, who is currently holding talks in Azerbaijan, told reporters
that he would discuss Turkey-Azerbaijan relations during his meetings.
Commenting on Armenian president's remarks as "Upper Karabakh will
never be given to Azerbaijan", Bozdag said that Turkey was closely
following the Upper Kakabakh issue, adding that this was a matter of
Turkey too.
Upper Karabakh is a Muslim Turkish Azerbaijani land, and it is under
an unlawful and unjust occupation, said Bozdag.
Turkey wishes this occupation to end and problems to be solved,
said Bozdag, adding that Turkey would continue to extend every type
of support.
Bozdag noted that normalization of Turkey-Armenia relations as well
as Azerbaijan-Armenia relations depended on ending the occupation.
Turkey-Armenia relations will not be normalized as long as Armenia
does not withdraw from Upper Karabakh, he added.
