TURKIYE —–NOT WITHOUT KARABAKH

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Turkey-Armenia border
crossing would not be opened unless Armenia withdrew from Azerbaijani
territories it occupied. "Opening of Turkey-Armenia border crossing
is up to a solution to the Upper Karabakh dispute. We will not take
any steps unless this dispute is resolved," he said.
