Erdoğan visits Azerbaijan to ease tensions
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will visit Azerbaijan on November 8 to ease tensions sparked by new school rules in Baku. The rules did not explicitly mention the hijab, but restricted clothing that violated school-uniform and secularism requirements; under them, some schools barred girls wearing hijabs from entering classrooms. The dispute escalated after criticism from Turkey, which Baku viewed as interference in its affairs, amid broader differences over Ankara’s influence, Azerbaijan’s sovereignty and the countries’ regional relations. Erdoğan said the brotherhood between the two countries could overcome their differences.
