Baku-APA. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyib Erdogan said that
Armenia-related processes are Armenia’s problem and not ours, APA
reports quoting BBC Turkish Service.

"Armenia needs to make very important decision. Presently, Armenia
needs to be disengaged from Armenian Diaspora’s control. If there
are countries, led by USA, France and Russia, which love Armenia,
then they should emancipate Armenia".

"Presently, approximately 170.000 Armenians live in Turkey. 70.000
of them are our citizens, however, remaining 100.000 Armenians live
in Turkey illegally", – Erdogan said.

"What will we do tomorrow, if necessary, we’ll say – come back home and
we’ll deport 100.000 illegal Armenian emigrants. We’ll do this because
they are not our citizens and we don’t undertake to keep them in our
country. So far, the occurring processes affect on our goodwill that
we displace, but they are unaware of what they do", – said Erdogan.
