Turkey Fuels Conflict in NogornoKarabakh, Backing Azerbaijan

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has accused Armenia of "aggression" and "expansion of territory" in the region. This confirms the suspicion that Turkey provided political and military support to Azerbaijan during the war broke between Azerbaijan and Armenia, taking advantage of previous conflicts between Armenia and Othmans. The Turkish government denies the atrocities committed by the Ottomans in Armenia and continues to fight alongside Azerbaijan.

Turkey has been accused of playing a role in last week's fighting in the Nagorno-Karabakh region. The week-long fighting appears to be escalating and Turkey seems to be contributing to the violence and fuels the conflict there.

Now, the eyes of the world are on Turkey's involvement in the war, which on September 29, Turkey promised to provide direct military support to Azerbaijan, calling Armenia an aggressor. Russia has called on Turkey to remain neutral and find a solution also.

Turkey's foreign minister has accused Armenia of illegally occupying the territory, while Armenian President Armen Sarkissian has said the area is part of Armenia's country and historically belongs to Armenians and that no one can take from us.

Turkey has backed Azerbaijan's claims in the region, and is determined to send pro-war forces to take over. Many governments around the world have alleged Turkey openly supporting it militarily and of playing a role in the conflict.

The Nagorno-Karabakh region was embroiled in a 1990 war between the two countries over ownership of the region. The region is predominantly ethnic Armenia – And it was announced its unification with Armenia in 1988, and the two countries have been vying for territory since then, and heavy fighting broke out in late September this year.

 France, Russia, and the United States have called for an immediate ceasefire in order to reach a solution on this severe regional conflict. Meanwhile, the French president said they had information that Turkey was sending Syrian mercenaries to fight alongside Azerbaijan who had crossed into southeastern Turkey.

However, in the volatile situation in Nagorno-Karabakh, Turkey is playing a key role in helping Azerbaijan and fueling the situation by delivering military support and weapons.
