/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Baku is content with the report of the OSCE
Fact-Finding Mission to the territories surrounding Nagorno Karabakh,
Echo Azeri daily writes. Deputy Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Araz
Azimov stated that "on the whole Azerbaijan has achieved its goal."
He reminded that by initiating the discussion of the issue at the 59-th
session of the UN General Assembly Azerbaijan was aspired to attract
the attention of the international community to "the policy of illegal
settling of these territories pursued by Armenia". "Azerbaijan never
insisted on possessing absolutely precise data regarding the settling
of these territories. But the facts established by the Mission are
close to those Azerbaijan possesses", he said. "I would like to note
that the Armenian Foreign Ministry gives rather one-sided assessment
to the outcomes of the Mission", Araz Azimov added. In his words, the
report and recommendations of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs allow the
Azeri party to appeal to the corresponding UN Agencies for assistance
in their realization. This, in his opinion, can become a theme for
a new UN draft resolution. Azimov also stated that Azerbaijan will
press for inclusion of the issue in the agenda of the 60-th session of
the UN General Assembly. According to him, "Armenia's responsibility
for the settling of the occupied territories is obvious". Touching
upon the continuation of the dialogue with Armenia, Azimov said that
the recurrent meeting of the FMs is scheduled for mid-April.
