Response of RA MFA Spokesman to DavutoÄ?lu, `The only support of Turkey
can be not interfering'
August 17 2013
`If Turkey wants to somehow support in conflict resolution, the only
support can be not interfering',- so answered RA MFA Spokesman Tigran
Balayan to the question of Aravot.am as to how he qualifies the
statement of Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet DavutoÄ?lu in Gabala. To
recall that speaking at a meeting of the Council of Ministers of
Foreign Affairs of Turkic countries held in Gabala, DavutoÄ?lu stated,-
`Turkey is ready to do everything possible and everything depending on
it to stop the occupation of Azerbaijani lands by Armenia'. Moreover,
he said that as if Nagorno-Karabakh conflict hampers provision of
stability in the South Caucasus, and has stressed,- `Liberation of
other occupied territories of Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan
continues to be the main direction of our foreign policy, we would act
in that way from now on. We strongly protest against the occupation of
20 percent of Azerbaijani lands and against forced deportation of our
brothers Azerbaijanis from their homes.' According to Tigran Balayan,
such statements only hinder the peaceful resolution of conflict.
Summing up the talk, Mr. Balayan said,- `Turkey can not be useful due
to its biased position.'
