Armenia’s recent violations of a 2020 peace deal – resulting in new border tensions with Azerbaijan – are "unacceptable," the Turkish president said Wednesday, reiterating Ankara's support for Azerbaijan, according to Anadolu Agency.

Speaking to the public in the capital Ankara, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Türkiye sees the latest border tension as the result of Armenia's violation of the November 2020 deal ending the Karabakh war that resulted in the victory of Azerbaijan, adding that he finds it "unacceptable."

Erdogan also reiterated Türkiye's support for Azerbaijan, saying that the world should know that Türkiye stands by its Azerbaijani brothers and sisters.

Türkiye hopes Armenia will step back from its current mistaken path to instead work for peace, he said, adding that Armenia will face "consequences" for its "aggressive attitude" and violating the agreement.
