Ankara - APA. Turkish President Abdullah Gul, who had ended his
short-term visit to Azerbaijan and returned to Ankara, briefed a
group of media representatives on board the plane.
APA reports quoting Turkish media that Abdullah Gul said Turkey's
policy concerning Nagorno Karabakh had not changed.
"Azeris should not worry. Turkey has always supported Azerbaijan's
struggle at the sacrifice of its interests. We are parts of Turkish
nation," he said.
Abdullah Gul said he respected the strictures voiced in Turkey and
Azerbaijan over his visit to Armenia.
"Isn't this visit important if we achieve solution to the problem
and Azerbaijan's territorial integrity is restored? We discussed with
Sarkisian the situation in the Caucasus, problems between Azerbaijan
and Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh conflict," he said.
Turkish President said Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian wanted the
problems with Azerbaijan to be solved.
"Armenians are inclined to leave the occupied Azerbaijani
territories. I felt this at the meeting with Sarkisian. Of course,
the refugees will return and occupation will end," he said.
Abdullah Gul also underlined that he was satisfied with his Azerbaijani
counterpart Ilham Aliyev's position.
