Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Dışişleri Bakanlığı 29.09.2017

Turkey acts in close solidarity with its Azerbaijani brothers and sisters in regard to ending the occupation of one-fifth of the Azerbaijani territories which lasts over a quarter-century.

The recent travel of 4 Turkish citizens to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan was carried out on their own initiatives, without consulting any official authority and under no circumstances reflects Turkish official policy.

Turkey will continue to support friendly and brotherly Azerbaijan in its just cause.
