    BAKU STUDYING REPORTS ON LEBANON ARMENIANS RELOCATION TO GARABAGH

    AssA-Irada, Azerbaijan
    July 24, 2006 Monday

    Armenians being evacuated from Lebanon over the ongoing military
    operations are settled in Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh, an Azeri region
    under Armenian occupation, parliament member Ganira Pashayeva has
    said. She noted that a scrutiny into the matter is underway. The
    Armenian Foreign Ministry spokesman Vladimir Karapetian has confirmed
    that Armenians are being evacuated from this country. He told the press
    that first, Armenian citizens, and then ethnic Armenian Lebanese, are
    being delivered from Beirut to the Armenian capital Yerevan through
    Halab, the second largest city of Syria. Over 300 Armenians have
    already been evacuated from Lebanon. According to official sources,
    Lebanon is home to 120,000 Armenians. The head of the Azerbaijani
    community of Upper Garabagh, Nizami Bahmanov, regarded the ongoing
    relocation of Armenians to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan
    as a consequence of indifference on the part of international
    organizations. He did not rule out that Armenians being re-settled
    from Lebanon would be relocated primarily to the Lachin, Gubadly,
    Kalbajar, and Aghdam Districts. With the rising chances for settling
    the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, Yerevan is trying to build a live
    bridge between Armenia and Upper Garabagh. The Foreign Ministry
    spokesman Tahir Taghizada said the Azerbaijani government is aware
    of these facts. He said that if the ongoing scrutiny confirms them,
    the ministry will put forth a terse stance on the issue before
    international organizations.
