BAKU: Azerbaijani Women MPs Do Not Believe Turkish Prime Minister Cr

AZERBAIJANI WOMEN MPS DO NOT BELIEVE TURKISH PRIME MINISTER CRITICIZED THEM

Women members of the Azerbaijani parliament do not believe that
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has criticized them.

"We do not believe that the Erdogan administration has made such
statements and we think media reports on this issue are an effort
of the forces that seek to undermine Turkey-Azerbaijan relations,"
MP Ganira Pashayeva said.

Azerbaijani women MPs Ganira Pashayeva, Zhale Abbasova, Gular Ahmadova
and Aynur Jamalgizi visited Ankara in April to protest against opening
of the Turkey-Armenia borders.

Turkish media reported on May on 21 that Erdogan asked to provide
him with detailed information about the Azerbaijani MPs. The prime
minister said he was dissatisfied with Azerbaijani MPs’ statements.

Erdogan visited Azerbaijan earlier last week. Turkish prime minister
said once again that Turkey will not open borders with Armenia.

Pashayeva said Azerbaijani MPs are expecting Ankara to make explanation
about the media reports.

"We asked Turkish embassy to study this issue. The embassy said
reports in the Turkish media are untrue and said they will provide
an official explanation after they study the issue," Pashayeva said.
