This question is like asking Mecnun about Leyla. Love for Azerbaijan is so natural and so deep in Turkey that any person will be taken aback when such a question is asked. Like the air you breathe, one cannot explain the reasons for his or her love.
This love cannot be questioned. This love cannot be put to any test. This love cannot be doubted. For Turkey, this is the reason it portrays Turkey and Azerbaijan as "a single nation with two states." An Azerbaijani Turk living in Baku or Mingecevir and a Turkish Turk living in ?stanbul or Trabzon are members of the same nation.
Thus, there cannot be different interests for the members of this single nation. Indeed, this single nation will draw the divergent policies of these two states in the same direction. Those who take the helm of the state apparatus will come and go, but the people will travel to eternity together.
