Liberation of the occupied Azerbaijani territories was one of the goals of the Turkish-Armenian protocols, in addition to normalization of the Turkey-Armenia bilateral relations, Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu was quoted as saying by CNN Turk.
"The international community must understand that, one-sided peace is impossible in the South Caucasus," he added.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the occupied territories.
