Novruz Mammadov: I regret Russia’s acts
“I think that this act shows that Russia’s policy is not so wise. We are engaged in this issue. Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov yesterday reacted to the fact. I can not say whether Azerbaijan will send a note to Russia, but we always express our position to Russia,†he said.
Taking a stance on OSCE Minsk Group co-chair Mathew Bryza’s statement that the sides has to sacrifice something for the solution of the conflict Novruz Mammadov said Azerbaijan’s position on this issue is clear.
“We always state that the conflict has to be solved in accordance with international law norms and obeying to Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. As for Nagorno Karabakh’s status, this can only be defined in the framework of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. Armenia should realize the necessity of leaving Azerbaijani territories,†he said.
The department chief considers that the co-chairs often speak as a diplomat, not as a mediator.
“They often make vague statements. All this does not help the solution to the conflict, on the contrary impedes it,†he said.
Commenting on Armenians’ committing arsons in the occupied Azerbaijani territories and international organizations’ keeping silence Novruz Mammadov said official Baku will take corresponding steps concerning this problem.
“It is not the first time that arsons are committed in the occupied Azerbaijani territories. International organizations – UN, OSCE, European Union, PACE and others do not react to it. I sometimes ask myself: How would the international community have reacted, if a Muslim country had occupied lands of another country and committed such acts? Of course, the reaction would be different. But there is no necessary reaction regarding our problem,†he said.
Novruz Mammadov underlined that they have raised the issue the on arsons in the occupied Azerbaijani territories and continue to do this. /APA/
