The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is the most important problem in the region, Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Ismail Alper Coskun said.
"The resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem is just as important for Turkey, as it is for Azerbaijan. It is a problem of the same importance as the Cyprus issue," he said.
According to Ismail Alper Coskun, the most brutal crime during the whole duration of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict took place in Khojaly.
