Turkish PM: Genocides in Azerbaijan

The genocides in Karabakh, Syria, Iraq and other countries should not be forgotten, Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said. Yildirim made the remarks during the panel session entitled "The Concept of Power: Big Powers and Others" within the 6th Global Baku Forum.

"We should join efforts,” he said. “We are not entitled to say “What happened in Karabakh does not concern us”. It is impossible to keep silent about injustice."

“The efforts should be united to solve problems in the region,” Yildirim said.

He also mentioned about the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway, stressing that Georgia, Azerbaijan and Turkey are taking joint steps to ensure the security of the Caucasus region.

"A number of international projects are being implemented in the region,” he said. “The communication will be established between China and London due to the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway."
