Baku. Gulshen Hajiyeva -APA. "There are no changes in the Turkey’s
policy regarding Azerbaijan, it is impossible", said Mustafa Kabakci,
member of Turkish Parliament and head of the Turkey-Azerbaijan
friendship group, in his exclusive interview with APA.

MP denied the reports about the Turkey’s retracting of demand for
withdrawal of Armenian troops from the Azerbaijani land instead of
improvement of Turkish-Armenian relations. "I called the Turkey’s
foreign ministry after that I saw these reports. They told me that
there were no changes in the Turkey’s Azerbaijan policy. Being
the head of Azerbaijan-Turkey friendship group, I am expressing
the Turkey’s opinion. The Nagorno Karabakh problem is the issue of
not only Azerbaijan, but Turkey too. There is an injustice against
Azerbaijan. Nagorno Karabakh was occupied. It is impossible that we
retracted the demand for withdrawal of Armenian invaders from the
Azerbaijani lands".

Radio Liberty’s Armenian service spread reports about the Turkey’s
retracting the demand of Armenian withdrawal from the Azerbaijani
lands, but Turkey’s Foreign Ministry didn’t make announcement
denying that.
