Turkish Officials Intend To Illuminate Ararat With Flags Of Azerbaijan And Turkey

Savj Sayan, the mayor of the city of Ağrı in Turkey, posted a message on his Facebook page, noting that the Ağrı municipality is going to illuminate the side of Mount Ararat overlooking Armenia with the flags of Azerbaijan and Turkey.

“Ağrı Municipality is taking a quick initiative. In the near future, you will see this scene on the slope of Mount Ararat overlooking Armenia. I hope this will encourage Armenia on the battlefield,” mockingly said Sayan, posting a photo of Mount Ararat with the flags of Azerbaijan and Turkey.
