The Azerbaijani ambassador in Washington, Hafiz Pasayev, has appealed
to the US Congress in protest after Congressmen Frank Pallone and Joe
Knollenberg sent a letter to US President George W. Bush, demanding
more assistance to the breakaway Azerbaijani region of Nagornyy
Karabakh, the Azerbaijani state news agency Azartac has reported.
Pasayev recalled that Nagornyy Karabakh is recognized as part of
Azerbaijan and called on the USA to take political or economic steps
against the separatist region in the interests of Azerbaijan.
The Azerbaijani ambassador also called on the US congressmen to respect
Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and warned that any support for
the Pallone-Knollenberg initiative would deal a blow to the Nagornyy
Karabakh peace talks between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
