Azerbaijan, Baku, 14 April / TrendNews / Edward Lithner, former
head of PACE Monitoring Committee stated that the Council of Europe
will continue its activity around the regulation of Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, which undermines the situation in the region and violates
the international laws, TrendNews reported referring to ANS.
According to Lithner, Council of Europe repeatedly made statements
on the occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
"We stated unambiguously that Armenia should liberate the occupied
territories and internally displaced persons should return back to
their lands. During the meetings we stated about fair position of
Azerbaijan. OSCE Minsk Group and the Governments of both countries
are engaged in the settlement of Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over
Nagorno-Karabakh," he noted.
Answering to the question what the country which underwent aggression
should do, Lithner stated that Armenia first of all should liberate
the occupied territories, internally displaced persons should return
back to their lands and then we can speak about referendum and further
status of the region.
