Turkish Ambassador Says Erdogan Postpones Azerbaijan Visit Due to Busy Schedule

Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Erkan Ozoral said Wednesday that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had postponed his visit to Baku because of his busy working schedule.

BAKU (Sputnik) — Earlier in the month, Turkish media reported that Erdogan would visit Azerbaijan on September 10-11.

Ozoral told reporters that the visit had been postponed and the sides are discussing a new date of the visit.

The Turkish leader had a very busy schedule that led to the postponement of the visit, the ambassador said without providing additional details.

Turkey and Azerbaijan have been cooperating in a wide range of areas, including defense and energy, since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1992.
