"Yerevan, as always, makes false statements in an effort to mislead
world community," member of Azerbaijani parliament Musa Guliyev said
commenting on Armenian FM Edward Nalbandian's statement that Azerbaijan
undermines peaceful resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
The MP says making such statements Nalbandian seeks to justify the
destructive policy it pursues in talks in eyes of the OSCE Minsk
Group co-chairs.
"In fact, it was Armenia who sabotaged adoption of updated Madrid
principles since they were announced by the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs. In its turn, Azerbaijan adopted these principles with
minor reservations. This stance is quite acceptable in terms of
international law. Azerbaijan's move was met with understanding by
the OSCE Minsk Group."
"Terms of settlement of this longstanding and difficult problem cannot
be accepted at one hundred percent. Naturally, the parties to the
conflict make some minor adjustments to these terms," the MP added.
"At first, the Armenian side rejected these principles. But after the
St. Petersburg meeting, it accused Azerbaijan of failure to support
Madrid principles," the MP noted.
The MP says the problem is that Armenia is in no condition to make
decision on the conflict resolution independently.
"Yerevan is obliged to consult with third countries, especially with
one for which it stands as an outpost. In this sense, it is possible
that the ideas expressed by Nalbandian belong to the political forces
outside Armenia," Guliyev said.
"Message of the Armenian ministers is addressed neither to Azerbaijan
nor Armenian community. Azerbaijan is well aware of Armenian
authorities' habit to lie and turn the facts upside down. Indeed,
Armenian society has repeatedly expressed its protest against the
illegal way the current Armenian leadership came to power and against
their policies," MP said.
"Another ridiculous statement by Nalbandian is that Azerbaijan uses
ceasefire violation for propaganda purposes."
"The solution of the Karabakh problem cannot be limited to OSCE or the
UN. This is the problem of entire Azerbaijani people. Baku seeks to
ensure transparency in the process of Karabakh conflict settlement. If
Armenia is so concerned that violations of the ceasefire are made
public, let its army stop firing at Azerbaijan's positions. In all
cases, the truce is violated from the Armenian side and the Azerbaijani
army gives an adequate response," Guliyev underscored.
