Turkey-Azerbaijan-Armenia

On a meeting dedicated to the starting of Kars-Baku charter flights,
Azerbaijani parliament deputy Ganira Pashayeva accused the Mayor of
Kars, Naif Alibeyoglu, for provocations related to the opening of
the Armenian-Turkish border.

The matter is that since 2004 municipal administration of Kars had
started collecting signatures of the citizens in favor of opening
the border with Armenia. When the Mayor represented the results of
the campaign, 50 thousand signatures in favor of opening the border,
Pashayeva sprang up and declared that anyone, assuring that opening
the Armenian-Turkish border will benefit Turkey, is a mere provocateur.
