ArmInfo. The statement of the member of Bundestag and member of the
Germany-Azerbaijan parliamentary group Edward Linter doesn't comply
with Germany's official position on the Karabakh peace process, the
German Embassy in Armenia told ArmInfo correspondent when commenting
upon the given deputy's interview with Azeri news agency Day.az.
The German Embassy said that even if Linter really said this, which
needs to be rechecked, it should be noted that Linter is not a member
of the German Government but he is an independent deputy, therefore
this is his personal opinion and not the official position of the
German Government.
To note, according to the interview with Day.az, E.Linter said:
"Armenia is an aggressor. So, I think any talks about independence
of Nagorno-Karabakh are not appropriate. Azerbaijan should resolve
this issue. The occupied land should be returned because according
to the norms and principles of international law, Nagorno-Karabakh
is an integral part of Azerbaijan. The issue of self-determination
should be resolved on the basis of autonomy within the framework of
integrity of Azerbaijan".
