Azerbaijan bristles at Turkey after Armenia pact
11 October 2009 / AP, BAKU
Azerbaijan has criticized the agreement between Turkey and Armenia saying it aggravates the dispute over its breakaway enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Azeri Foreign Ministry said Sunday that the agreement "clouds the spirit of brotherly relations" between Azerbaijan and Turkey. It said Turkey should not have re-established diplomatic ties with Armenia before the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh was settled.
Armenia and Turkey agreed Saturday to establish diplomatic relations and open their border, which was sealed after the 1993 Armenian invasion of Nagorno-Karabakh, an area dominated by ethnic Armenians.
Azerbaijan and Turkey share cultural and linguistic ties, and Turkish leaders pledged earlier to help Azeris recover the enclave.
