Director-general of Turkey Marmara Strategic and Social Researches
Foundation Akkan Suver held news conference today (APA). Suver said
that he visited Baku to attend the 2nd Congress of World Azerbaijanis.

Highly appreciating the Congress, Suver called it not only the congress
of world Azerbaijanis but also all Turks worldwide. “Turkey needs to
learn much from Azerbaijan regarding lobbying activity. The problem
is we lack lobbying. Azerbaijan is a good example for Turkish world
for lobbying. Turkey should develop lobbying in order to be powerful,”
the Turkish visitor said.

Referring to the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, the director-general
said Armenia is pursuing a wrong policy. “It is imposable to develop
as a terrorist country in the civilized Turkish world. Armenia should
bear it in mind and withdraw from the territories it has occupied,”
Suver concluded./APA/
