Baku. Lachin Sultanova-APA. Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry commented
on the statement of OSCE MG CO-Chairs made on February 19, APA reports.
Spokesman for Foreign Ministry Khazar Ibrahim noted that Co-Chairs
focused on two main issues."The Co-Chairs stated that they would not
conduct legal discussions basing on Azerbaijani documents in the UN in
December, 2008 and noted that the conflict had not military solution. I
should note that Azerbaijan made such statements basing on norms and
principles of international law and it will be so henceforth. All
international documents including UN Charter envisage legal norms and
principles, which are guided by Azerbaijan. Moscow Declaration signed
by three Presidents on November 2 envisages possibility of solution to
the conflict within the framework of international norms and principles
and documents and decisions adopted within them. Therefore such kind
of steps taken by Azerbaijan is inevitable. Azerbaijani President has
stated several times that official Baku supports peaceful solution
to the conflict and peaceful settlement of the conflict should
be grounded on international norms and principles. As regards non
existence of military way of the conflict, Armenia tried to solve the
problem via military ways and tries at present. Azerbaijani lands have
been occupied by Armenian armed forces. The co-chairs' such kind of
statements should be directed to Armenia and Armenia should be demanded
to solve the conflict basing on international legal norms and withdraw
its troops from the occupied lands unambiguously," he said.
Ibrahim underlined that Azerbaijan spread analogical documents in
the UN in various forms before.
"It does not mean that we should not raise the issue again. There are
various documents within the framework of the UN that both UN Security
Council and General Assembly have approved them. These statements
being as documents of both Security Council and General Assembly have
been spread as 13th and 18th points of current session," he said.
