"Delaying the solution of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict by peaceful means creates conditions for the worsening
of the situation, Azerbaijani Defense Minister Safar Abiyev stated
receiving the delegation headed by the Chairman of the Sub-Committee
NATO Partnership (PCNP) Rainer Stinner, Azerbaijani Trend News
agency reports.
"Armenia should understand that Azerbaijan will not accept the
occupation of its lands. An international legal framework exists to
resolve this problem peacefully, and the four resolutions adopted
by the UN Security Council are sufficient to address this issue,"
Abiyev said.
The Nagorno-Karabakh (armed) conflict broke out back in 1991, when,
subsequent to the demand for self-determination of the Nagorno-Karabakh
people, Azerbaijani authorities attempted to resolve the issue
through ethnic cleansings, carried out by Soviet security forces
(KGB special units) under the pretext of the implementation of the
passport regime and by launching of large-scale military operations,
which left thousands dead and caused considerable material damage. A
cease-fire agreement was established in 1994. Negotiations on the
settlement of the conflict are being conducted under the mediation
of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen (Russia, USA, France) and on the
basis of their Madrid proposals, presented in November, 2007.
Azerbaijan has not yet implemented the 4 resolutions of the UN
Security Council adopted in 1993, by continuing to provoke arms race
in the region and openly violating one of the basic principles of
the international law non-use of force or threat of force.
