Turkey is cooperating with Russia and this cooperation targets
development and progress of the whole region, Turkey`s prime minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan said while speaking at the Diplomatic Academy
as part of his visit to Russia.
Turkish premier emphasized that Turkey proposed to establish
a high-level strategic Cooperation Council which will include three
South Caucasus countries (Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia) plus Turkey
and Russia. This initiative, according to Erdogan, is very important.
Azerbaijan-Armenian, Russian-Georgian and Turkish-Armenian
relations are problematic in many respects. Today Turkey along
with Russia is actively involved in finding a peaceful solution
to the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, since the settlement of
Azerbaijan-Armenian conflict will contribute to the solution of
Turkey`s problem with Armenia, said Turkish premier.
