Baku to insist on peaceful settlement of Karabakh conflict
MOSCOW
Azerbaijan will insist on the peaceful settlement of the Karabakh
conflict, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mamedyarov told a news
conference in the news agency Itar-Tass on Thursday.
According to him, the Karabakh conflict is "the biggest problem in
the region, and the conflict is the oldest." The minister opposed
"the freezing" of the conflict. "We do not believe in an idea of
"frozen" conflicts," he emphasized.
"The world community should realize that combat actions is not a
method of solving the issue. Armenian forces occupy territories,"
Mamedyarov pointed out. "Without the return of forced migrants it is
difficult to hope for the successful outcome of negotiations," he
indicated.
"Such countries as the United States, France and Russia should say
their loaded word. The principle of territorial integrity is hard and
fast," the Azerbaijani foreign minister remarked.
