Azerbaijani National NGOs Forum will implement a new project in
Azerbaijan in order to bring the truth about the Nagorno-Karabakh to
the world community.
"This project will give new impetus to the systematic and successive
bringing of the truth about Karabakh to the world community's
attention, as well as will fill in the existing vacuum in this issue,"
Azerbaijani National NGO Forum head Rauf Zeyni said at an event in
Trend press centre.
According to him, new opportunities for cooperation between national
NGOs and international organizations will be opened within the
implementation of the project.
Zeyni stressed that a Centre for Nagorno-Karabakh will be established
at the office of the National NGOs Forum. "The truth about Karabakh
will be periodically brought to the world community's attention
through this centre," Zeyni said.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -
are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the
occupied territories.
