Turkey informs Azerbaijan of its policy in Caucasus

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Azerbaijani-Turkish relations go far beyond any bilateral ties. This is not subject to any change and everybody must be aware of it," Turkish President Abdullah Gul announced.



According to Turkish President, Ankara's diplomacy in relation to Armenia applies both to Turkey and Azerbaijan. "Time will come when everybody will approve that policy," Mr. Gul said.



In the meantime, the Turkish official stresses that each country is independent in its policy-making and decision making-processes. "We are friendly countries unanimous in our views. But we represent two separate countries, let alone many other Middle Asian small states that lie between us. From that viewpoint, we must have respect for each other's policy," Turkish President's Press Service reports quoting Mr. Gul.
