Foreign Ministry: Azerbaijan firmly supports all steps of brotherly Turkey to ensure peace and stability in the region
Baku, August 19, AZERTAC
“The Azerbaijani side firmly supports all steps of brotherly Turkey, which has historically played a significant role in the development and progress of the Mediterranean region, to ensure peace and stability in the region based on international law, and we hope that the current tensions will be resolved soon,” said spokesperson for Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry Leyla Abdullayeva as she responded to media's question on Turkey's activities in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Armenian Foreign Ministry's statement in this regard.
“In this regard, the attempts by third parties to use the situation as an opportunity for their hostile and biased approach to the countries of the region must be resolutely rejected. The position and statements of the Armenian side, which contain groundless accusations against Turkey, should be condemned and rejected as an attempt to abuse the sensitive situation in the Mediterranean for its own narrow political interests,” Leyla Abdullayeva added.
