Ankara`s pressure on Yerevan is important, Elman Abdullayev says.
Spokesman for the Foreign ministry of Azerbaijan Elman Abdullayev thanked Turkey for the support in the cancellation of Van-Yerevan flight planned for 3 April.

Abdullayev noted that official Baku `has witnessed Ankara`s support` saying there were some discontents with the operation of this air flight in Azerbaijan.

"This air flight was to be operated by a private company but political and economic components proved inexpediency of these flights", the diplomat said noting that Azerbaijan always felt Ankara`s support.
