Ankara/25.04.18/Turan: In the near future, Turkey and Azerbaijan will implement new joint projects. One of the priorities of Baku and Ankara is the transition to calculations in the national currency, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at a joint news conference with head Ilham Aliyev in Ankara on Wednesday.
Erdogan highly appreciated Azerbaijan's support of Turkey's steps to combat terrorism. "Baku from the very beginning declared support for operation "Olive Branch" in Africa," Erdogan said.
He also recalled that Turkey from the very beginning perceived the Karabakh conflict as its problem. "The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict must be resolved within the territorial integrity and inviolability of the borders of Azerbaijan and in accordance with UN resolutions. This is Turkey's greatest desire," Erdogan stressed. -02D-
