Yerevan, 29 October: "The UN discussion of the situation on the
Nagornyy Karabakh-controlled territories initiated by Azerbaijan proves
once again that the Azerbaijani side is not interested in settling
the whole complex of problems in relations between Azerbaijan and
Nagornyy Karabakh."
Our Mediamax correspondent reports from Stepanakert that the deputy
foreign minister of the Nagornyy Karabakh Republic [NKR], Masis
Mailyan, said this while commenting on the decision of the UN General
Assembly to recommend that the issue on "the situation on Azerbaijan's
occupied territories" be included in the assembly's agenda.
Masis Mailyan said that "this step by official Baku has a purely
propaganda nature and does not help establish a favourable atmosphere
required for achieving a comprehensive solution to the Karabakh
problem".
Otherwise, the deputy minister said, the Azerbaijani leadership would
have responded to the numerous proposals of the NKR authorities to
start implementing measures to establish trust between the sides and
resume full-scale negotiations, which he said are the most effective
means of solving the conflict.

"Such destructive actions by Baku create insurmountable obstacles in
solving the problem of refugees and displaced persons and are capable
of nullifying all the efforts of international mediators to establish
a lasting peace and stability in the region," the NKR deputy foreign
minister stressed.
