Opening of the Armenian-Turkish border

Armenian and Turk Ancestors were living as one nation
Feelings of love and friendship need to be reinforced and these bonds strengthened in order for a sound friendship to be established between Azerbaijan, Turkey and Armenia in particular, for the occupation of Azeri territory to end and for Armenians, Azeris and Turks to live as brothers, and for these nations to attain the peace and well-being they deserve. Both parties must put the questions of the past to one side; it is of the greatest importance for them to concentrate on the peace and security that the Turkish-Islamic Union will bring them, without mentioning any hatred or rancor stemming from the past. Not only Muslim, Turkic states will find the friendship, brotherhood, peace and love they long for in the Turkish-Islamic Union, but also members of different faiths speaking different languages, such as the Armenians. The Armenian people lived for centuries alongside the Turks and Azeris, and are their friends and brothers.
That applies to the Azeri and Turkish peoples as well as the Armenians. It is not these people who are behind the artificial conflict and disputes that are being attempted to be established between the Azeri and Armenian people, but atheist zionists and freemasons who have inflicted oppression, chaos and war on the world down the ages and have set brother against brother.
Our Armenian brothers are exceptionally polite, modest, tolerant, loyal, virtuous and determined people. They are a valuable people we lived side by side within for many years under the umbrella of the Ottoman Empire and whom we honored with the title of “millet-i sıdıkaâ€, or the loyal nation.
In the same way, our Azeri brothers are highly rational, humble, modest, pleasant, affable, honest, peaceful and lovable. There is a huge predisposition toward love and respect and mutual toleration between the two peoples, for forget the events of the past and make a brand new start with the best of intentions.
However, the efforts that have been made to date to alter the climate of moderation that has always existed between the Turkish and Armenian peoples, to damage the moderation between the two peoples by setting up sudden tensions, raising voices and speaking tense and angry words, to engage in activities that will raise the temperature in the region – for no reason and with no justification – to refuse to abandon cold, distant and very formal relations, can only harm efforts aimed at bringing in peace and security and raising the quality of life and well-being of both communities.
It must not be forgotten that tensions in relations between communities can end in invasions, conflict or even war. If problems and disputes had been resolved with relations based on love, friendship and brotherhood, without people being caught up in panic and fear, then the picture in many parts of the world would be very different to what it is today. Poor mothers would not now be weeping for their children. It is therefore very important to learn from history and the experiences of other societies, not to seek solutions using the methods of the past, in other words the kind of language that will raise tensions, but, on the other hand, to look for a solutions within the framework of such religious virtues as friendship, brotherhood, love, respect, tolerance, kindness and altruism.
First and foremost, there is a need for a voice between our Azeri and Armenian brothers to say: “We are brothers and friends, and have shared the same lands for hundreds of years, have fought for that land side by side, have been one another’s neighbors and have eaten at one another’s tables. Nobody can set us against one another. Let us be friends and brothers. We love one another.†That voice is the powerful and placid voice of the Turkish-Islamic Union.
Both the Azeri and Armenian peoples need peace, security and love. Our Azeri brothers need to be able to come to Turkey without being caught up by bureaucratic obstacles such as visa and passport requirements and to make the dream of “two states, one nation†a reality. And our Armenian brothers, who are squeezed into a very small area of land, need to attain space, well-being and freedom. To that end, the borders on either side need to be opened up at once, and the Azeri and Armenian peoples need to embrace Turkey and the Turks.
As with the lifting of all bureaucratic obstacles between Turkey and Armenia, and the question of the opening of the Armenian border and the ability of the two peoples to cross from one side to the other, Turkey needs to emphasize its conception of profound love, affection and compassion toward those who are not part of its own race, faith or language. And just like our Azeri brothers, the Armenians are an inseparable part of the Turkish nation and, as in the past under the Ottoman Empire, it will be perfectly natural for them to live side by side in peace and understanding with Muslim Turkic peoples under the umbrella of the Turkish-Islamic Union.
