Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan commented on the current situation in Armenia, saying that "Turkey is against any attempt at a coup d'etat."

"We are against all kinds of coups. We simply cannot accept coup attempts," Erdogan told reporters after Friday’s Muslim prayers in Istanbul.

According to him, "a coup attempt by the Armenian military is unacceptable, and in case of the need to change the current government, the last word should belong to the Armenian people."

"They should leave that decision to the discretion of the Armenian people," Erdogan added.
