    ARMENIAN MINISTER CRITICAL OF AZERI-SPONSORED UN RESOLUTION



    Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan has criticized the
    Azerbaijan-sponsored UN General Assembly resolution onthe Nagornyy
    Karabakh conflict, Armenian Public TV has reported.

    This resolution is hypocritical, will not benefit Azerbaijan and will
    confuse the international community, Public TV quoted him as saying.

    At the same time, he said that the UN resolution is a message aimed
    at making Azerbaijan understand the moods of the international
    community. It shows that the international community supports the
    package that is currently on thenegotiating table and prioritizes the
    principle of self-determination and the territorial integrity of
    states, thetelevision quoted him as saying.

    The OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs - the USA, France and Russia - voted
    against the resolution on the situation on theoccupied Azerbaijani
    territories at the UN General Assembly in New York. Over 100
    countries abstained from voting, 34countries voted for and seven
    against the resolution. None of the member countries of the EU backed
    the resolution,Armenian Public TV said.
