Azerbaijani parliament vice speaker: â€œConfederations became historyâ€

06 September 2011 16:00 (UTC +04:00)

Muradova noted that the countries are cooperating within certain organizations and the European Union can be an example for that. She said today the world countries are not interested in establishing confederation. â€œAzerbaijan is an independent country and this year will celebrate 20th anniversary of restoration of its independenceâ€.

Muradova said there was no need to seek novelties in the Azerbaijani-Turkish relations. â€œTurkey also has no such initiative. I donâ€™t see it. The discussions can be accepted only as the discussions of ideas. I donâ€™t think that this issue has a real background. Azerbaijan and Turkey are strategic allies and friendly countries. We have many common interests and targets and we take proper positions in our activity toward this. It wouldnâ€™t be correct to propose such idea and then to sound different ideas about that. If one day idea of establishing organization like EU comes to agenda and if Azerbaijan and Turkey fin this proposal interesting, we can consider this issue. Currently we donâ€™t need to return to the form of state, which was rejected by other countriesâ€.
