    A scene from the Turkic country representatives' meeting

    ANKARA - Organizational leaders from member countries of the Cooperation
    Council of Turkic Speaking States met in Ankara and signed a joint action
    strategy agreement to coordinate activities, reported the Azeri Trend news
    agency on Wednesday.

    The second such gathering, the meeting was chaired by Turkish Deputy Prime
    Minister Bekir Bozdag, who is charged with representing Turks living
    abroad, was attended by the heads of Turkic organizations in Azerbaijan,
    Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Turkey. First Deputy Chairman of the State
    Committee, Valekh Hajiyev, represented Azerbaijan at the meeting.

    The meeting stressed the importance of a `Strategy of joint activities of
    `Diaspora' organizations of Turkic states'. The head of the Department for
    Turks abroad and related communities Kemal Yurtnac highlighted the
    importance of the meeting claiming that its results will become apparent in
    the coming years.

    `In particular, we believe it is very important to take this step along
    with all the Turkic countries. I believe that Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan
    will join us,' Yurtnac said.

    In his speech, Valekh Hajiyev stressed the importance of combining the
    Turkic peoples as one `diaspora' to solve `problems of the Turkic world.'

    Joint activities of the peoples will give them confidence, contribute to
    their promotion and help the Turkic peoples to take a different position in
    the future.

    Hajiyev said the first Forum of Heads of Diaspora Organizations of Member
    Countries of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States was held in
    Baku as Azerbaijan also considers the issue important.

    Bozdag, stressing the importance of the meeting, said the joint activities
    of communities abroad play an important role in resolution of many problems.

    He noted that the Turkic Republics should make inter-republic relations
    productive, calling to base the joint work on a common culture.

    `As a government, we will do our best to support the work in this
    direction,' Bozdag said.

    Then, the member countries of the Cooperation Council of Turkic Speaking
    States signed a joint actions strategy agreement.

    The program of the first Forum of Heads of Diaspora Organizations of Member
    Countries of the Cooperation Council of Turkic-Speaking States, which will
    be held on June 21 in Baku, was also discussed within the meeting. It was
    decided that the panel discussions in three directions - America, Canada;
    Europe; Asia and the CIS will be organized within the forum along with the
    general session.
