Turkish General says that Azerbaijan should solve the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict by itself.

“I believe that Azerbaijan will win if it starts the war. But
political issues should be solved beforehand because Armenians are
not the only enemy to Azerbaijan,” Turkish Global Strategic Research
Center member, General-Major-in-reserve, Nejat Eslen told
journalists, APA informs.

“Neither the EU nor the US will prevent Azerbaijan from making an
attempt to resolve the problem. Turkey must be ready to give any help
because Azerbaijan is important country for the world powers.”

Saying Azerbaijan and Turkey are together in some issues, Mr. Eslen
stressed that this cooperation will come to military sphere as well.

“Being admitted to NATO while the lands are under occupation will not
be beneficial to Azerbaijan. The lands should be liberated beforehand
because the US is converting the NATO to a defense bloc”.
