ArmInfo. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan not only puts
conditions forward but is also trying to threaten Armenia.
‘40,000 Armenians were living and working illegally in Turkey. Why
have they come to our country? Because there is great poverty in
Armenia. They are trying to earn their living in our country. We
will send them back, if necessary, but we do not do it because of
humaneness’, – Erdogan said in Warsaw during his meeting with students.
He also added the main demand of Turkey from Armenia was the
withdrawal of troops from the occupied Azerbaijani territories,
including Nagorno Karabakh. ‘We have not passed this decision, the UN
passed the decision. Turkey closed the borders with Armenia because
of the occupation. There is cause and consequence. The borders will
be opened, when the consequence is eliminated’, he said.
