“In this respect, sport has become a general value. Turkey-Azerbaijan Circles Federation agrees to this reality and does not object the match between Turkish and Armenian football teams in Yerevan. But Turkey-Azerbaijan Circles Federation considers that no general value can prevail over indivisibility of Turkey. The Armenians, who almost everyday claim that Eastern Anatolia is the territory of western Armenia, can not demand us to open our borders which they refuse recognize. The Armenians, who call Aghri dagh as Ararat, describe it on the state emblem, accuse our forefathers of committing “genocide”, continue to occupy 20 percent of Azerbaijani territory, committed massacre against our compatriots, established the so-called state in Karabakh, cannot call us to become friends,” the statement says.
The statement made by Turkey-Azerbaijan Circles Federation says that Armenian leadership’s inviting Turkish President to Yerevan aims to isolate Azerbaijan and take advantage of the crisis in the Caucasus for the sake of “strong Armenia”.
“We being an important layer of society think that “invitation to watch this match” does not comply with supreme interests of our country,” the statement says.
