Hulusi Akar: 'Peace deal between Azerbaijan and Armenia will contribute to our relations'

A peace deal between Azerbaijan and Armenia will also contribute to the full normalisation of relations between Türkiye and Armenia, Turkish Minister of National Defense Hulusi Akar said in the article entitled "The Caucasus region: A unique opportunity for peace and reconciliation" published in TRT World. 

"We have already taken positive steps, including the appointment of special envoys and agreed to open shared border crossings for citizens of third countries and diplomats. Additionally, direct air cargo transit is another concrete result of initial diplomatic contacts.

"We are also encouraged by recent developments, such as the visit of Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan to Türkiye in February, to convey condolences following the devastating earthquake in our country. Preparations are underway to open the Alican-Margara border gate, which was used for the passage of Armenian aid and rescue workers to the earthquake zone. We are grateful to the people and the government of Armenia for extending their help during this challenging time," Akar wrote.
