    Nagorno-Karabakh to be parts of Azerbaijan that state's Foreign Office
    is trying to shirk the responsibility for the ethnic cleansing and
    occupation of the territories as a result of Azerbaijan's aggression
    against Nagorno-Karabakh, Tigran Balayan, Press Secretary of the RA
    Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told NEWS.am, commenting on a statement
    made by his Azeri counterpart Elhan Polukhov, who was "indignant at"
    RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian's statement.

    It would be surprising if the Azerbaijani side could produce an

    on the grounds that it is the "state's own territory."

    Yesterday, speaking of the consequences of the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict, RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian stated: "The problem
    of consequences has to be resolved along with that of causes of the
    conflict. All the problems must be resolved by means of negotiations
    and mutual agreements."
