OSCE MINKS GROUP CO-CHAIR-COUNTRIES ON SETTLEMENT OF KARABAKH CONFLICT
COME OUT FOR THEIR OWN INTERESTS, AND NOT FOR THOSE OF ARMENIA:
AZERBAIJANI FM
YEREVAN, JULY 28. ARMINFO. The OSCE Minks Group co-chair-countries on
settlement of the Karabakh conflict come out for their own interests,
and not for those of Armenia, said Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar
Mamedyarov in his exclusive interview to the Azerbaijani newspaper
Zerkalo. He added that "each country wages its own policy in our
region."
He said that the position of the OSCE MG co-chairs, "we will welcome
any agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia," does not correspond to
the realities necessary. "There is a fact of Armenia's aggression,
occupation of the Azerbaijani territories, deportation of people,
ethnic purge. It is infringement of the norms of the International
Law. First of all, one should think of this. There is a cliche
'Success has many parents, while failure is an orphan.' If we agree
with Armenia, many countries will propose their services in the
settlement," the minister said. He added that the most important is
that three key states in the world, the USA, Russia and France,
"proved to be able to call the things by their right names."
As regards the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, the minister,
first of all, emphasized "the necessity of liberating the occupied
territories and returning refugees." "A reasonable compromise on the
Armneian party can be only understanding of a refusal from the idea of
independent Nagorny Karabakh."
At the same time, the minister said that he intends to insist on the
peaceful settlement scheme by the very end.
