Turkey was not involved in any phase of recent tension between
Azerbaijan and Armenia, Foreign Ministry spokesman Selcuk Unal said
on Wednesday.
Unal said that the efforts to make Turkey a target in a recent tension
between Azerbaijan and Armenia was a new defamation campaign against
Turkey.
Unal meant the tension over Ramil Safarov, an Azeri officer who was
sentenced by a Hungarian court to life in jail for brutally killing
an Armenian officer in Budapest in 2004 but was extradited by the
Hungarian authorities to his home country on Aug 31 and pardoned by
the Azeri President once back home.
