[December 16, 2006, 18:29:56]
The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) does not recognize
results of the recent so-called constitutional referendum in
Nagorno-Karabakh, said the Organization's spokesman, Ambassador Atta
El-Manane.
He noted the so-called `referendum' gravely violates relevant norms
and principles of international law, and interferes with an ongoing
peace process.
`The Organization of the Islamic Conference once again strongly
condemns the aggression of Armenia against Azerbaijan and urge
immediate, complete and unconditional withdrawal of Armenian
occupying forces from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan', Atta
El-Manane said.
The spokesman stressed the OIC is well aware of the occupation and
ethnic cleansing carried out by the Armenian armed forces against
peaceful Azerbaijan population in the Nagorno-Karabakh region and
other occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
Atta El-Manane also said the OIC fully recognizes sovereignty and
territorial integrity of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
