Turkish Parliament Speaker prioritizes Nagorno-Karabakh issue in Caucasus
Azerbaijan’s Embassy in Ankara hosted a ceremony to commemorate the 8th death anniversary of Heydar Aliyev. Chairman of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey Cemil Cicek attended the event. In his remarks, Cicek reconfirmed Ankara’a resolve to continue efforts towards restoration of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity.
“Protection of Azerbaijan’s rights in Nagorno-Karabakh is one of the priorities of our foreign policy. The Nagorno-Karabakh issue is the most important threat to peace and stability in the Caucasus. And Armenia-Turkish rapprochement is possible provided that the occupation of Azerbaijani lands is stopped,” CNN Turk quoted Cemil Cicek as saying.
