Nagorno-Karabakh is a bleeding wound for us, Turkish President
Baku, July 29 (AZERTAC). “Our position and thoughts on Nagorno-Karabakh are as follows: the Nagorno-Karabakh issue is a bleeding wound for Azerbaijan and for us alike. This should be clear. We cannot have another opinion. We monitor this issue and will continue monitoring it until the end,” Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan told a news conference here.
“At present, the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh is occupied, and the occupiers are known to all. This is evidenced not only by us, but also by the United Nations. This has been proved. This issue must be resolved. So far, the Armenian side has demonstrated a negative approach to its solution. Azerbaijan has always demonstrated a positive approach,” he said.
On the Armenian President`s latest statement, Erdogan said, “There can’t be such a statesman, such diplomacy. Sargsyan has committed a grave mistake here. And he has confirmed the historical mistake. He should apologize, rectify his mistake”.
