Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Erkan Ozoral then made a speech at the event.

“On 15 July 2016, the Turkish people announced to the whole world that they would not accept the decision of someone. The July 15 defeated coup is part of our national history. Nobody can chain the Turkish people. As long as the world exists, this nation will defend its state and motherland. Those responsible for the coup attempt in Turkey used Islam for their purposes,” the diplomat said.
