ArmInfo. The former Ambassador of Turkey to Azerbaijan Huseyn Avni
Karslioglu hinted in an interview to APA at Turkey’s asistance in
case of military actions against Karabakh. ‘You launch war in Nagorno
Karabakh, and see how Turkey boils up. Turkey will be so happy, if
Azerbaijani football clubs Karvan, Turan, Garabagh and Khazar-Lankaran
win on the international level’, he said.

Speaking about Turkey’s support to Azerbaijan in the settlement of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict, the ambassador underlined that his country
is not the co-chair of OSCE Minsk Group. "Neither the co-chairing
countries, nor Armenia want this. Our borders with Armenia are closed,
and this has a serious influence on Armenians. Turkey undergoes
political and economic losses. Turkey is exerted pressure," he said.
