Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said that the official refutation of the Turkish Foreign Ministry, according to which Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu had not given an interview to APA Azerbaijani agency, once again proves that Azerbaijani media should be treated with less confidence. “I talked to the Turkish Foreign Minister during a reception hosted by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in honor of Foreign Ministers participating in the Nuclear Security Summit. He refuted the report, saying that he had not given an interview,” Mr. Nalbandian told a briefing in Washington, DC.

Turkish Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman Burak Ozugergin stated that APA Azerbaijani agency attributed to the Turkish Foreign Ministry the remarks, which Ahmet Davutoglu could not pronounce, being Turkey’s Foreign Minister. On April 13 APA reported that Davutoglu said in an interview with the agency that the removal of Azerbaijan from the processes at South Caucasus is unacceptable for Turkey and that issues on liberation of Azerbaijani territories are basic paragraphs of Zurich Protocols.
