Turkish MP says resumption of war unlikely in Karabakh

PanARMENIAN.Net - Member of the Turkish parliament for the ruling Justice and Development Party Mehmet Erdogan said that resumption of hostilities in Nagorno Karabakh is unlikely.

“In my opinion, it will not take place, as a war has never helped in solving problems. Military solution of a problem can’t produce the needed result. It would be useful to intensify the diplomatic activity and draw the international community’s attention to the killing of innocent people,” said Erdogan.

Referring to the Armenian-Turkish normalization and opening of Armenia-Turkey border, Erdogan said that there is no need in hurrying with respect to the border opening. According to him, Turkey is interested in “elimination of all problems between the neighboring countries in the region.”

“We will continue displaying our good attitude. Turkey’s foreign policy and our Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu’s policy are successful. We try to improve the Armenian-Azerbaijani relations and then Armenian-Turkish ties, the latter depending on Armenia. I strongly believe that finally peace and stability will be established in our region,” Erdogan said in an interview with Day.az.
