Ravil Gaynutdin: "Armenia has to free the occupied territories"
Ravil Gaynutdin, Chairman of the Council of Muftis of Russia,
considers that Russian inertia in settlement of Nagorno-Garabagh
conflict makes Azerbaijan search the support of such organizations as
GUAM.
R. Gaynutdin expressed the position of the leadership of Russian
Muslims and stated that "Armenia has to free the occupied
territories". According to him, Presidents I.Aliyev and V.Putin are
able to agree and the end of negotiations will be settlement of
Nagorno-Garabagh conflict and rehabilitation of Azerbaijan's
territorial integrity.
At the same time, R. Ganutdin was concerned with forceful regulation
of the problem relating Iran. He stated that war between Iran and the
United States cannot pass by Azerbaijan, as "million Azerbaijanis who
can suffer" are living in Iran. He does not rule out the possibility
that Azerbaijan can turn to "a part of battle field" if war starts.
As proof of his words R. Gaynudin cited Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan in
which territories the armed hostilities started when the US troops
entered Afghanistan.
Chairman expressed a hope for the possibility of regulation of the
problem between Tehran and Washington by peaceful meanings. According
to him, the address of Iranian President to the US Presidents gives
the ground for that.
Reminded Russian-Chechnya war the Mufti stated that Yeltsin's mistake
was that on time he did not meet with Dudaev who was against the
armed hostilities. If on time Russia reckoned with Chechnya and
conducted negotiations concerning the separation of the authorities,
no war would be.
According to Chief Mufti, it is impossible to punish Iran for
scientific breakthroughs in nuclear field. At the same time, Iran
should respect Non-Proliferation Treaty.
