    KARABAKH CONFLICT: AZERBAIJAN IS ADVISED TO ACCEPT REALITY

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ A conference on "The ways of the Nagorno Karabakh
    conflict settlement from the Azerbaijani viewpoint" has recently
    taken place at the Conrad Adenauer Foundation's office in Berlin.

    Elhan Nuriev, director of the Center of Strategic Sciences under the
    Azerbaijani President and Johannes Rau, member of the International
    Security Forum under the German Military Academy were invited as
    speakers.

    NKR Permanent Representative in Germany Gayane Apinyan and Ambassador
    of Azerbaijan in Germany Parviz Shahbazov also partook in the
    conference, held by senior officer of the Conrad Adenauer Foundation
    Peter Hefele.

    The Azerbaijani representative developed his speech in the
    context of the Azerbaijani territorial integrity and threat of
    the Karabakh conflict settlement by force. In response, officer of
    the German International Institute on Security Issues Uwe Halbach
    and representative of the Union of the Christian-Democratic and
    Christian-Social Parties in the Council of Europe Rayner Dornzaifer
    noted that they treated the Azerbaijani territorial integrity with
    understanding; however the existing new realities and facts should
    be taken into account in solving the conflict. Uwe Halbach added that
    the demand of territorial integrity is not absolute and sometimes not
    realistic, exemplifying Georgia. Rayner Dornzaifer advised Azerbaijan
    to learn a lesson from the history of Germany that, according to
    him, after the World War II had to accept the existing reality, thus
    guaranteeing peace and security in Europe. He expressed confidence
    that in case of refusing the territorial integrity, Azerbaijan will
    contribute to the peaceful settlement of the conflict and together
    with Armenia will be given great assistance from the Council of Europe
    for liquidating the consequences of the conflict.

    In response to Nuriev's threatening to solve the Karabakhi issue by
    use of force, Gayane Apinyan in her turn reminded how many people from
    both sides sacrificed during the previous war and in what unfavorable
    conditions the people of Nagorno Karabakh managed to uphold their
    natural right to liberty.

    "Today, in spite of Azerbaijan's furious armament, Nagorno Karabakh,
    due to its high state orderliness, is incomparably stronger and is
    ready to defend its independence", she said.

    Gayane Apinyan advised the Azerbaijani representatives to refuse the
    revanchist aspirations and respect the right of the people of Nagorno
    Karabakh to independence.
