Despite President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s recent condemnation of school headscarf bans during his address at the UN General Assembly in New York, the Turkish government in Ankara has remained publicly silent regarding new restrictions on hijabs in Azerbaijan. Reports indicate girls are being prevented from attending classes for wearing headscarves, yet no official statement has been released by Turkey. Erdoğan’s remarks at the UN, delivered on September 22nd, did not specifically name Azerbaijan or any other nation. The lack of comment from Ankara is notable given Erdoğan’s strong stance against such bans internationally. This silence raises questions about the dynamics between Turkey and Azerbaijan. The story was first reported by Turkish Minute. Further investigation is needed to understand the reasoning behind Turkey’s lack of response.
