Akif Nagi: I condemn Azerbaijani opposition partiesâ€™ position favoring Armenians and demand them to clarify the problem

19 September 2007 12:56 (UTC +04:00)

The oppositionâ€™s position on Nagorno Karabakh conflict is vague, they should clarify it. Criticizing the opposition partiesâ€™ views concerning the recent events, Akif Nagi called on these parties to refrain from observation.
â€œI understand the authorities and blame them for the current developments. But I do not understand the oppositionâ€™s viewpoint. Opposition parties should refrain from being indifferent to Karabakh problem. No opposition party reacts to the attitude towards Karabakh Liberation Organization and me for two weeks. In spite of protesting to Karabakh Liberation Organization chairmanâ€™s arrest several times or his unofficial house arrest, they make statements supporting the authorities. I condemn Azerbaijani opposition partiesâ€™ position favoring Armenians and demand them to clarify the problem,â€ he said.
Akif Nagi also said that he does not understand the position of human rights organizations.
â€œShould we appeal them in written form? Why do they defend a corrupt official or an Armenian grave, and do not react to the arrest of a person showing national interest? I do not understand the positions of the organizations related to Karabakh and public organizations holding forums regarding it. We invite Armenian minister, sportsmen to Baku and serve them and they kill Azerbaijani soldiers and capture them in Karabakh and on the contact line bordering on Armenia,â€ he said. /APA/
