I think thats a good question for you, since youre an expert on turkey. You know, turkey has been consistently supporting the military operations in the area, a forceful resolution to the nagornokarabakh conflict. We had a very different position on that is you who continues to be like that. However, that didnt preclude us from closely cooperating on all levels with them, including the level of president s.
