BAKU: Kona: Turkey And Azerbaijan Should Conclude Security Agreement

KONA: TURKEY AND AZERBAIJAN SHOULD CONCLUDE SECURITY AGREEMENT

Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
March 5 2007

"Armenia’s aggressive actions should be always brought to
discussion. France and members of the European Union support Armenia.

It does not seem real that Armenia will release the occupied
Azerbaijani territories, we can even say that Armenia can deepen its
aggressive policy," Gamze Kona, professor of Turkish Military Academy,
told the APA’s Turkey bureau.

Gamze Kona, the author of the books on regional security in Turkish and
English said that "great states" do not condemn Armenia’s aggressive
policy.

"Armenia can maneuver in broad sphere. Alongside with OSCE Minsk
Group, Turkey should strengthen the intergovernmental relations and
support Azerbaijan. It does not seem convincing that several states
will impose sanction on Armenia. Turkey should strengthen pressure
on Armenia and simultaneously help Azerbaijan," she said.

Gamze Kona said that Turkey and Azerbaijan should conclude security
agreements.

"Armenia and Russia signed treaty on military cooperation 4-5 years
ago. Such a treaty was signed between Greece and the southern part
of Cyprus. "Caucasus security treaty" was brought to discussion in
the reign of Suleyman Demirel and five times underwent changes. This
treaty was not signed, as Armenia and Russia did not want it. These
countries avoid Turkey’s and Azerbaijan’s resistance. I consider that
Turkey and Azerbaijan should immediately conclude security agreement.

Turkey should stand for ensuring Azerbaijan’s security. As Azerbaijan
has oil, great states will try to protect their interests in your
country. The name of the treaty to be signed between Azerbaijan and
Turkey is not so important, its’ signing is very important. Why have
Armenia and Russia signed such an agreement but Turkey and Azerbaijan
have not concluded it yet? Azerbaijan’s security is important for
the security of Turkey, Middle East and Caucasus," she said.
