Arif Mammadov International organizations will not recognize the
airport that Armenians are planning to build in Shusha, Arif Mammadov,
head of Azerbaijan's State Civil Aviation Administration, has said.
Shusha lies in the occupied Azerbaijani territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.
"If any aircraft lands in that airport, the Azerbaijani side will
take appropriate legal action against the airline. I don't think
this airport will be recognized by international airlines either,"
Mammadov said.
He said that there is a similar situation in Cyprus, where
international organizations and airlines do not recognize the airport
in Northern Cyprus as an international airport.
Mammadov said that the State Civil Aviation Administration and
Ministry of Defence regularly bring to the attention of international
organizations the fact that Armenia violates international conventions
and rules in using Azerbaijani airspace.
