Dec 2 2006
Azerbaijan Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov made statement that
Armenia's plans to hold a constitutional referendum on December 10
in occupied Nagorno-Karabakh, which he described as an integral part
of Azerbaijan, violates international law and principles, and damages
ongoing peace process.
The declaration reads that the referendum and its results will have
no legal effects, Armenia will not be able to deceive international
community about ethnic cleansing and aggression realized in the
occupied territories by Armenians.
Official Baku considers that, any constitutional document of the
self-regulation of Nagorno Karabakh population can be realized only
through democratic peace process. Azerbaijan will never recognize
Armenian's illegal acts based on "fait accompli" contradicting attempts
to achieve peace and stability in the region.
