It comes as the Turkish president called on Armenia to immediately withdraw.

They in turn have warned that Ankara's involvement could destabilize the region.

Nagorno Karabakh is considered part of Azerbaijan by the international community but has been under Armenian control since the 19 nineties.

The conflict in the Caucasus Mountains has remained unresolved more than three decades with periodic bouts of fighting.

Martial law has been declared amid the violence in some parts of Azerbaijan as well as in Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh.

Russia, the United States on the United Nations have all called for an immediate ceasefire and talks to stabilize the situation.

Meanwhile, the Turkish president, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, continues to pledge his country's full support to the government in Azerbaijan.

Here's what Recep Tayyip Erdogan had to say in the last hour, doing e condemn once again, Armenia, which has attacked Azerbaijan's territory Turkey, will continue to support its friend and brother wholeheartedly on with whatever means possible.

It is time to end the crisis in this region.

This'll region well once again have peace and calm following the swift abandonment of all Azerbaijan's territories.

Any measures or propositions besides this will be unfair.

Andan just President Erdogan there.

Well, I'm joined now by Zo Kasimov from the University of Bonn who analyzes relations between Russia and Turkey.

So thank you very much for joining us.

Let's just talk about why this is actually happening right now.

We had a flare up in July, but why do you think this is all escalating at the moment?

I can just second it.

Indeed, we have several flare ups in July 4 years ago, also and two days ago.

But what is new off this flare up is a dimension.

And I mean way should accept that the international community and the means group off the organization off security and collective security.

Uh, that exists since 30 years failed to find a solution peaceful solution for the conflict and what we see now that the four Mott off the men's group is going to be changed.

So I guess Russia would would take the initiative and bring both sides to the to the dialogue and find some for Russia.

It's not just the initiative is that it wants to be a significant player in all of this in terms of having influence on both sides.

It is a significant player.

I would even say that is the most significant player.

I mean, look.

There are three co chairs off the men's group France, US and Russian Federation.

But the Russian minister of foreign affairs phoned yesterday his Azerbaijani Armenian counterpart, his Turkish counterpart.

There is no information about any talks with the French and the U.

S colleagues and that would be the logic off the means group.

But it was not the case and what's the second press secretary off the Russian president all today that Russia is keeps touch with with Ankara on this issue?

So how is Russia Moscow reacting to the way that Ankara is speaking about this conflict and saying that they will put their full support behind Azerbaijan?

I don't I don't see, hear any contradiction.

Moscow cooperates with Ankara quite successfully in Syria, somehow also in Libya, the interests are different, but there is a cooperation also, with some extent in Iraq and Azerbaijani Armenian conflict.

The area office in Nagorno Karabakh would become the new platform for Turkish Russian cooperation.

Okay, We'll have to leave it.

There is over a gas.

Um, off.

Thank you very much for joining us.

Thank you.
