ArmInfo. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan indirectly confirmed that it is in Ankara that all decisions on the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict are made. Thus, Erdogan, speaking at the XII conference of Turkish ambassadors in Ankara, said that "Ankara could not and did not become silent against the background of the occupation of Azerbaijani lands," without explaining what exactly he meant by this expression.
Then, the Turkish leader, according to tradition, criticized the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing countries, assuring that they had failed their efforts on Nagorno-Karabakh.
"When we raised this issue with the mediators, the representatives of the OSCE MG countries never offered a way out of the problem. Because they did not have such a goal. The mediators did not even try to solve the problem," Erdogan stressed.
At the same time, he assured that "the flag of struggle will not go down until the liberation of the entire Nagorno-Karabakh from the occupation, including the return of Kelbajar and Lachin."
And against the background of these statements of Erdogan, the statements of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, who assures that to this day Turkey is not involved in the Karabakh conflictbut, but if necessary, they will turn to their older brother for help cause a smile.
