Turkish columnist Cetiner Cetin, who writes for Yeni Safak, has deeply condemned Azerbaijan’s unfriendly behavior towards Turkey. The Turkish columnist highlights that Azerbaijan hasn’t intensively counteracted Armenian Genocide denial bill.

Azerbaijan’s first lady Mehriban Aliyeva chairs French-Azerbaijan inter-parliamentary friendship group.

Chairman of “Great Union Party” Mustafa Destiji has particularly said: “Azerbaijani society stood next to Turkey and expressed its objection, while Azerbaijani government didn’t anyhow express the moods of its people. Azerbaijani people know Turkey will support them in Karabakh issue. The border with Armenia hasn’t been open for not losing Azerbaijanis. Baku should have declared that if France adopted an anti-Turkish decision, they would object it. But nothing has been done.”

Turkish expert Mesut Haqy Djashin also condemned Baku claiming its behavior was full of shortcomings. “Armenian Genocide issue doesn’t only concern Turkey, but Azerbaijan also. I think President Aliyev scared not to worsen relations with Russia.”

A professor from Selchuk University Bilal Akgyun stated that President Aliyev feared to counteract France. Azerbaijan was expected to support Turkey counteracting through its Ambassadors in Europe.
