Azerbaijan supports the Turkish Prime Minister's stance on allegations
regarding the 1915 Armenian incidents, Deputy Head of the Azerbaijani
Presidential Administration and chief of Foreign Relations Department
said on Friday.
Novruz Mammadov told reporters in Baku that "Azerbaijan supports
Turkey's attitude about Armenia. Azerbaijan has always stood next to
Turkey, and will always continue to support it. It has always stood
against Armenia's so-called genocide claims".
Turkish and Armenian historians should come together and participate
in a joint commission to investigate the events of 1915 objectively
Erdogan has said; the Baku government has agreed with this position.
In 1915, the ruling Committee of Union and Progress approved a law
that ordered the moving of a part of the ethnic Armenian population in
the then-empire. Armenia and the Armenian diaspora claim that nothing
short of genocide occurred under this order, but Turkey says that
both Turks and Armenians died during clashes between Ottoman forces
and armed Armenian groups backed by Russia.
On April 25, Erdogan gave his condolences to the descendants of
Armenians who lost their lives in the events of 1915, for the first
time in the history of the Turkish Republic.
