Initial comments

 * The lead needs to be expanded to completely summarize the article and also comply per WP:LEAD. It should have at least another paragraph to act as a "mini article" in order to achieve the "broadness" part of the criteria
 * "The countries share a short 8 km border" - all measurements should be converted to their imperial equivalent using a conversion template (easy)
 * "It does not recognize the de facto independent republic" - should this be recognise, assuming this uses UK spelling?
 * First paragraph in the negotiations and economic cooperation section is unreferenced
 * The prose in the Military cooperation section is a little choppy, all the small paragraphs could easily be merged into two large ones to create a better flow
 * "In January 29, 2013, TAKM (Organization of the Eurasian Law Enforcement Agencies with Military Status)" - this should be pronounced the other way around; The Organization of the Eurasian Law Enforcement Agencies with Military Status (TAKM). This small paragraph is also unreferenced
 * "Erdoğan flew on to Sochi, Russia" - on to? It could just be 'to'?
 * "Davutoğlu announced, at a 26 May joint press conference in Baku" - Davutoğlu announced, at a joint press conference in Baku on 26 May

Close - not listed
I'm sorry to do this since you have waited so long and I really hate doing this, but at the moment this article cannot pass the GA criteria within good time. The prose is overall choppy and some sections need a copyedit. There are also a dozen dead references that need replacing as this article depends on those citations given. If you have any questions please ask. Good luck ☯ Jag  uar  ☯ 17:20, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
