The Turkish government and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan make
statements in line with interests of their country, Head of the
Azerbaijani Presidential Administration’s Publlic and Political
Department Ali Hasanov said.

On Tuesday, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in an interview
BBC warned of possible expulsion of 100,000 illegal Armenian migrants
from the country "if Yerevan does not get rid of the mortgage of the
Armenian diaspora."

"The more Turkey assists Armenia in cooperation, the more Armenians
carry out anti-Turkish policy," Hasanov told media today.

He said Armenia will lose as much as Turkey in this anti-Turkish
campaign.

Erdogan made these remarks, replying to a question about Ankara’s
response to adoption of resolutions the so-called "Armenian genocide"
by the parliaments of several countries.

After the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the U.S. House of
Representatives adopted "Armenian resolution" on March 4 and the
Parliament of Sweden on March 11, Turkey recalled its ambassadors to
Washington and Stockholm for consultations.
