Vahit Erdem: We will struggle against injustice against Azerbaijan till the end

14 August 2007 11:51 (UTC +04:00)

-You added experience of working in political and international word to your experience in public administration. Turkish media outlets do not conceal their intentions to see you in the post of Defense Minister. Have you received any hint regarding this from the Prime Minister?
-I have not received any information. Prime Minister forms the Cabinet of Ministers. He involves those he could work in close cooperation with to the Cabinet. I do not think someone knows something at present. Everyone is busy with presidential election. But I know that Prime Minister is dealing with forming a new Cabinet.

-You resisted unfair attacks on Turkey in the international arena. You said to the face of Armenian parliament speaker in Yerevan that pulling out troops from Azerbaijani territories is inevitable. Can we say that AKP government will continue its severe policy against Armenia?
-I have always stood against unfairness everywhere. We will struggle against the injustice against Turkeyâ€™s brother Azerbaijanâ€™s until we achieve a result. We regard Azerbaijan as our state. Azerbaijanâ€™s problem is ours. We will struggle together with Azerbaijan against Armeniaâ€™s aggression and achieve to end the unfairness. There is no other way out. Everyone knows that Armeniaâ€™s continuing to occupy Azerbaijani territories in the 21st century is unacceptable. We would not like to be in hostile relations with Armenia. However, Armenia should first of all try to establish good relations with Turkey and refrain from unfairly accusing Turkey in the international arena. Armenia should pull out its troops from Azerbaijani territories unconditionally. If it does this, it can establish better relations with us and Azerbaijan as well. Armenia is doomed to remain in isolation in the region until it reconciles with Azerbaijan and Turkey.

-Armenian Foreign Minister condemned NATO for not forcing Ankara into opening Turkish-Armenian borders.
-NATO should force Armenia first to achieve peace. First of all, we have to solve the major conflict then care about details.

- How does Turkey manage to fight PKK terrorism?
-Sooner or later Turkey will succeed in that issue as well. Because, we are very strong. We do not want to cause some international problems. We try to solve the conflict by means of international consensus. We are pleased with Iraqi Prime Ministerâ€™s regarding PKK as terrorist. There is trilateral mechanism to fight terrorism among the US, Turkey and Iraq. We will solve the conflict sooner or later. Despite the fact that some Kurd groups make statements in Northern Iraq they would not be able to overcome the US-Turkey-Iraq trilateral mechanism./APA/
