“European politics, where populism, racism, Islamophobia, multiculturalism and anti-integration are gradually gaining strength, is exposed with all its excesses in the European Parliament with its current composition, the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs reports.
“The non-binding resolution entitled “The situation in Nagorno-Karabakh after the aggression of Azerbaijan and Azerbaijan’s continued threats to Armenia” adopted by the European Parliament (EP) today (October 5) is an example of irresponsibility, prejudice, partiality and ignorance,” he says the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkey in his statement.
In a resolution adopted today, Thursday, Parliament unequivocally condemned Azerbaijan’s premeditated and unjustified military attack against Nagorno-Karabakh on September 19, which, according to MEPs, constitutes a flagrant violation of international law and human rights and a clear violation of previous cease-fire efforts. MEPs called for sanctions against those responsible and for the EU to review its relations with Baku, and condemned Turkey’s involvement in arming Azerbaijan and its full support for the 2020 and 2023 attacks, prompting a backlash from Turkish Foreign Ministry
“European politics, where populism, racism, Islamophobia, multiculturalism and anti-integration are gradually gaining strength, is exposed in all its excesses in the European Parliament with its current composition. Our wish for the future of the EU is that the current European Parliament, whose term will end soon, has a new composition made up of constructive, inclusive and reasonable representatives who are committed to the fundamental values ​​of the EU,” continued the Turkish statement. Ministry of Foreign Affairs
“Turkey is making strong efforts to establish permanent peace, stability and prosperity in the South Caucasus by carrying out the normalization process with Armenia, specifically contributing to the peace process between that country and Azerbaijan and ensuring peace, within the framework of international law, in all areas of conflict and humanitarian crises, including the Ukrainian war. It mobilizes all means to consolidate brotherhood and common interests and is a fundamental factor whose weight and efforts are used in this direction under the leadership of our president.
We consider it a systemic weakness that such irresponsible texts, which no one takes into account, but will attract the attention of marginal sections, can be presented to us as a decision of the European Parliament and we do not take them seriously,” he concludes.
