    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The Azerbaijani Embassy had been carrying out
    strenuous work to dissuade India from voting against the resolution
    on Nagorno Karabakh, or, at least, abstain, Azeri Ambassador to India
    Tamerlan Karayev said.

    "However, this country did not lend an ear to our arguments," he said.

    "We were cherishing plans for cooperation.

    Unfortunately, India spoiled everything. Presently, the Azerbaijani
    Embassy in Delhi is waiting for MFA instructions. Afterwards, the
    official position of Baku will be brought to notion of the Indian
    side," he said.

    "This move upset us and it will certainly affect the Azerbaijani-Indian
    relations," he said, 1news.az reports.
