    NATO DEFENSE AND SECURITY COMMITTEE CONFIRMS FACT OF OCCUPATION BY ARMENIA OF AZERBAIJAN'S TERRITORIES

    AzerTag, Azerbaijan
    Nov 16 2006

    As reported, since November 11, the first vice-speaker of Milli Majlis,
    the head of delegation of Azerbaijan in NATO Parliamentary Assembly
    (NATO PA) Ziyafet Askarov and a member of the safety and defense
    standing committee of the Parliament, Siyavush Novruzov have been
    on a visit in the Canadian city of Quebec for participation in 52nd
    annual session NATO PA.

    One of the major questions of the agenda of session was the
    prepared report on the countries of Southern Caucasus, and the
    Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. This question has been
    discussed at the session of Defense and Safety Committee of NATO PA
    taken place on November 14 and corresponding decision was accepted.

    As stated by Mr. Suyavush Novruzov, the session considered the
    question of integration of the countries of Southern Caucasus in
    the Euro-Atlantic space, including reports on Azerbaijan, Georgia
    and Armenia.

    Prepared earlier in subcommittee of NATO PA, the report on Azerbaijan
    did not satisfy us, he said. "We repeatedly expressed our opinion on
    the documents. After the meetings, held during stay of representatives
    of Committee in Baku, the report was radically changed. I shall note,
    that the document in this time reflected the fact of occupation
    of 20 percent of the Azerbaijan territories, heavy life of more
    than 1 million refugees and IDPs, and also driving of 200 thousand
    Azerbaijanis from their native lands in the territory of Armenia, 4
    Resolutions of UN Security Council on aggression of Armenia against
    Azerbaijan. Along with that, the document also specifies the arsons
    committed by Armenians in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. This
    is an only document where the concrete figures contain all the moments
    connected to the conflict.

    >From 26 states-participants possessing the vote, 25 have voted at
    session for acceptance of the given document".

    The document especially notes the role of Azerbaijan in energy
    safety of Europe. Though the Armenian party lifted the far-fetched
    "genocide" question again, it has been completely excluded from the
    text of the document.
