Azerbaijani MP sees preconditions for deterioration of  Azerbaijani-Turkish relations

ArmInfo. Milli Mejlis deputy Elman Nasirov sharply criticized the recent actions of Turkey, which, in his words, are directed against Baku and can damage bilateral  relations of the countries.

In particular, the deputy did not like the fact that Ankara has not  yet reacted to Baku's demand for the surrender of four of its  citizens who visited Nagorno-Karabakh. "Against the backdrop of such  silence, the activity of these people is further increasing, which,  of course, causes serious dissatisfaction in the Azerbaijani  society." In any case, this visit is a serious crime and it should  not go unpunished, "the Azerbaijani deputy is convinced.

He also did not like the fact that some members of the Turkish  delegation in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe  voted "for" anti-Azerbaijani resolutions. "Recently, in the PACE,  some deputies, being" instruments in the hands of the Armenian  diaspora "," the Armenian lobby, "voted for two" anti- Azerbaijani  "resolutions. We have long been accustomed to such injustice and we  know perfectly well where and how these processes are fed, who  governs them We were struck by the fact that there were three Turkish  parliamentarians among these pro-Armenian deputies, including a  well-known politician such as Deniz Baikal (former leader of the  largest opposition opposition People's Republican Party in Turkey).   They said that there might have been some technical error, or there  were problems in technical procedures, but with a comprehensive study  of this issue it turned out that there were no technical problems,  and three PACE deputies from Turkey actually voted for prejudged  anti-Azerbaijani documents, "- Nasirov was indignant.  At the same  time, he found it difficult to name possible reasons for such a step  on the part of the Turkish parliamentarians. The deputy recalled that  in the most difficult times for Turkey, the Azerbaijani state, the  people were close to the fraternal country, supported in everything.  In his opinion, the Turkish public should make categorical  condemnation, express strong opposition to such actions in order to  prevent similar steps in the future. "We expect that the leadership  of the Turkish state will take all the necessary measures with regard  to actions that can cast a shadow on the friendship and brotherhood  of our countries, and we hope so," Nasirov said.

Recall that in the second decade of September, representatives of the  Turkish intelligentsia - a member of the political party "Green and  Left Future", the chairman of the public organization "Ankara's  Platform of Thinking" Ufuk Uraz, writer and public figure Said  Chekinoglu, some Ali Bayramoglu, writer and presenter Erol  Katyrchyoglu visited Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh. This visit caused  a painful reaction in Azerbaijan. The Prosecutor General's Office of  Azerbaijan initiated a criminal case against the above- mentioned  persons and conducts an inspection, moreover, they are declared on  the international wanted list by the Interpol line. It is known that  Turkey does not extradite its citizens to foreign countries at the  request of Interpol. However, the Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan  stated that Ankara will fulfill the legal requirements of the  Azerbaijani legislation.
