Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Hulusi Kilic has said that Armenia
should withdraw its troops from the territories around Nagorno Karabakh
which will pave the way for the opening of the Armenia-Turkey border.
According to the Azerbaijani news website SalamNews, Kilic also said
that Turkey does not have problems with Armenia to open the border,
but rather conditions.
"The issue that has resulted in closing of the border with Armenia
should be resolved. Armenia should pull out from the occupied
territories and open the border with Azerbaijan after which there
will be no problem in establishing ties with Turkey," said he.
The Turkish ambassador also said that the West also encourages the
rapprochement between Ankara and Yerevan.
"That is also a sacred issue for Turkey, and we would like to see a
rapid resolution to the conflict," said he, adding that Turkey is in
favor of equal development in the region.
