Ana Veten party puts off conference with Turkish parties

05 January 2009 [18:27] – Today.Az

"The Ana Veten party has decided to put off holding a conference in
Baku with the parties, represented in the Great National Assembly of
Turkey", said deputy of the Azerbaijani parliament and chairman of the
Ana Veten party Fazail Aghamaly.

He said strengthening of relations between Turkey and Armenia is
widely covered by Azerbaijani mass medias. Moreover, the recent
statements of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoghan about the
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan and campaign to apologize to
Armenians will promote the phased resolution of this issue.

"At the same time, we are watching the events, analyzing the
developments and are ready to take definite actions depending on how
the situation develops.

On the one hand, we must not worsen the fraternal relations with
Turkey and on the other hand we must not allow the threat to the
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan during the strengthening of
relations between Turkey and Armenia.

If any ties contradicting to the national interests of Azerbaijan
appear between Turkey and Armenia, we, as a party, will immediately
speak against it and will undertake definite actions", noted Aghamaly.

It should be noted that earlier the Ana Veten party has proposed an
initiative of holding a conference in cooperation with the parties,
represented in the Great National Assembly of Turkey in the light of
strengthening of relations of this country with Armenia.
