enterprises to Russia? Though what can we expect from a country,
which is contemptuously called an outpost?"

"Why did "the developing" Armenia hand all its enterprises to
Russia? Though what can we expect from a country, which is
contemptuously called an outpost?", spokesman for the Foreign
Ministry of Azerbaijan Khazar Ibragim said commenting on the
announcement of the spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of Armenia,
who stated that signs of despair are obvious in Azerbaijan.
He said the announcement evidences that the Foreign Ministry of
Armenia prefers to set the desired for the reality. In particular, he
commented on Karapetyan's conclusion, according to which Armenia
leaves Azerbaijan behind on almost all international standards
"He and other Armenian diplomats, who make such announcements, would
better take training courses. In particular, it would be interesting
to me to listen to their answer to the question "why does Armenia,
which "outstrips" Azerbaijan on almost all world standards" lags
behind Azerbaijan by the GDP growth rates and by the volume of
budget. Why did "the developing" Armenia hand all its enterprises to
Russia? Though what can we expect from a country, which is
contemptuously called an outpost? Only a good facial expression in a
bad game or attempts to hide from it people the truth that the
positions of this country have weakened through the last few years,
while Azerbaijan's influence is growing"
He noted that Karapetyan's statement is designed for Armenian
audience in the threshold of presidential elections. He also referred
to it the statement that it will take another 10-15 years for
Azerbaijani army to reach the level of the Armenian troops.
"There is also the statistics of a number of international
organizations, including OSCE and UN, according to which Armenia
violates international conventions in open by dislocating military
technique in the occupied lands thus violating the CFE Treaty quotes.
If Armenian diplomats, who state that Armenia outstrips Azerbaijan,
imply this, I fully agree with them. Armenia is really a leader on
the Earth in ignoring all existing international norms and
resolutions"
He also commented on Matthew Bryza's statement that any resolution on
the Garabagh conflict must be supported by the people of Nagorno
Garabagh, despite official Baku's repeated announcements that the
term "people of Nagorno Garabagh" does not exist.
"We have witnessed that Armenian mass medias misinterpret Matthew
Bryza's statements and that was confirmed by the latter. He opposed
the announcements of the Armenian press that he criticized the slogan
"Two states-one nation" and the policy in this direction.
He also agreed that the representatives of Armenian and Azerbaijani
communities of Nagorno Garabagh must be informed about the
negotiation process.
"And it does take place. The OSCE co-chairmen regularly meet with
them".
He noted that Azerbaijan will never agree on the unilateral
settlement of the issue and on the participation of only the
representatives of the Armenian community of Nagorno Garabagh in the
negotiation process.
