TURKISH AMBASSADOR IN AZERBAIJAN GIVES PRESS CONFERENCE
Baku, 11 November,(AzerTAj)Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Hulusi Kilic held Tuesday a press conference to comment on the results of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev`s recent trip to Turkey.
According to Kilic, Turkey views the trip as a success.
The Turkish envoy said the two states had always had very good relations and
cooperation.
“Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev`s recent Turkish visit and Turkish President
Abdullah Gul`s forthcoming Azerbaijan trip are a vivid evidence of this…” said
Kilic.
He described the Azerbaijani leader`s speech at the Turkish Grand National Assembly
as “historic.”
“Usually, the Grand National Assembly holds its sessions in the second half of the
day. President Ilham Aliyev`s speech was fixed for 11 a.m. However, all members of
the Assembly, including representatives of opposition parties gathered at the hall
long before the session`s start. This shows how much importance we in Turkey place
on President Ilham Aliyev`s trip.” Kilic said.
The Turkish envoy also touched upon economic and trade relations between Azerbaijan
and Turkey, saying they are rapidly developing.
On bilateral energy cooperation, Kilic pointed out the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil,
Baku-Tbilisi-Erzurum gas and Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway projects. “These huge
projects are open for all regional countries to provide peace and stability.” he
added.
