Türkiye's Communications Director, Burhanettin Duran, paid tribute to soldiers who died in the Karabakh conflict as the country joined commemorations marking Azerbaijan's Remembrance Day, according to Anadolu Agency.
In his remarks, Duran stressed the enduring ties between Türkiye and Azerbaijan, a relationship both countries have frequently described as reflecting close historical, cultural and political bonds.
Continued solidarity between Ankara and Baku
Azerbaijan's Remembrance Day commemorates soldiers who lost their lives during the Karabakh conflict, a dispute between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the Nagorno-Karabakh region that has spanned multiple phases of fighting in recent decades. Türkiye has consistently voiced support for Azerbaijan throughout the conflict and its aftermath.
Anadolu's report did not detail the specific venue or format of the commemorations Duran took part in, nor did it provide additional remarks beyond his tribute to the fallen and his comments on bilateral ties.
Turkish officials have regularly taken part in Azerbaijani commemorative events in recent years as part of what both governments describe as a close strategic partnership.
