The Resolution on the `Situation of the Occupied Territories of
Azerbaijan' was approved yesterday, during the 62nd Session of the UN
General Assembly. There were 39 members voting for and 7 members voting
against the document; 100 representatives abstained from voting. The
initiative of Baku did not receive support by any EU member state; all
of them either voted against the Resolution or abstained from voting.
As mentioned by Armen Martirosyan, permanent representative of Armenia
in the United Nations, the US representative in the UN made a speech
before the voting, expressing his opinion against the document.
Azerbaijan didn't manage to receive support by the members of `Islamic
Conference' organization either. More than 20 member states of the
organization abstained from voting. Russia, France, India and other
countries were against the initiative too.
It should be noted that the document has no legal force.
