“The idea of “One nation, two countries” has existed between Turkey and Azerbaijan before the decision passed by the French parliament. After that decision, Turkey and Azerbaijan must continue developing relations in all spheres within the framework of this logic”, MP from Turkey’s Justice and Development Party, Chairman of Turkish Parliament’s NATO group he Ali Riza Alaboyun told.
He underlined that Armenia was continuing its hostile behavior against Turkey and Azerbaijan and showing it at all levels: “It is impossible to understand the attempt to make us to accept the incidents occurred 100 years ago as genocide. The archive documents show that the Armenians committed genocide against Turks. Armenians carry out slanderous campaign against Turkey in order to cover up the genocide committed by them in Khojaly 20 years ago and occupation of 20% of Azerbaijani lands. Turkish and Azerbaijani parliaments must closely cooperate and strengthen their activity in the international organizations”.
Alaboyun announced that the European countries try to use “Armenian card” against Turkey and Azerbaijan because they are afraid of Turkey’s strengthening and returning of new Ottoman spirit: “Foremost, we must strengthen the economic potential of our countries. The Armenians unveiled their intention by occupying Karabakh and powerful forces show their intention by turning a blind eye to it. We have no friend except us. That’s why we must increase economic relations between our countries, inter-parliamentary relations and relations between the NGOs. Our MPs must meet with the European parliamentarians and jointly protect our rights. We must grow our youth in the spirit of national traditions. We must gather our energy and spend it to our struggle in the national issues”.
