Azeri MPs in Turkey to lobby against protocols with Armenia

[Presenter over video of meetings] A group of Milli Maclis
[Azerbaijani parliament] members are in Turkey with the aim of
preventing the ratification by Turkish parliament of protocols signed
between Turkey and Armenia and postponing this until the settlement of
the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict.

Today Azerbaijani parliament members first met Kursad Tuzmen, advisor
to the head of the ruling Justice and Development Party [AKP] on
foreign relations, at the party headquarters. The MPs later met Prime
Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Media representatives did not attend
the meeting. Journalists were allowed to film the meeting briefly.

Speaking to journalists after the meeting, the chairman of the Milli
Maclis commission for foreign relations, Samad Seyidov, said they were
very satisfied with the meeting.
