Azeri diplomat: "Question of borders' opening with Armenia is outside Gars municipality's competence"

"For opening of the borders Armenia should withdraw from alleged genocide claims, refuse territorial claims against Turkey, and free occupied Azerbaijani territories," Consul-General of Azerbaijan in Gars has informed APA.

Expressing positive attitude to Gars municipality head Naif Alibayoghlu's opinion on necessity of opening of borders, Hasan Zeynalov said that, there are forces in Turkey that are interested in the opening of borders with Armenia.

It should be noted that Gars municipality's head stated necessity of opening of borders with Armenia in his interview given to Turkish Daily News. He stressed that opening of borders will not only serve development of Gars from economical view point, but also will be cheap and reliable road for Turkish exporters for bringing their goods to Middle Asia and Far East markets.
