"As a result of the efforts of the presidents of both countries, the relations between the two countries were restored.

Currently, there are about 4 million Syrian refugees living in Turkey, and official Ankara directly concerns itself with and cares for problems of these people," Ayrim said.

It wants to solve all problems peacefully. Turkey wishes elimination of the double standards applied to Azerbaijan and liberation of the occupied lands of the country," he said.

If Armenia were not an occupier, then today it could participate in many projects, the Turkish MP added.
