    Azerbaijan `cage bird' for OSCE Minsk Group

    17:34 / 01/08/2010The Azerbaijani authorities are once more trying to
    deceive both the international community and the Azerbaijani people.
    In addition to the sensational story about the resolution on peoples'
    self-determination approved by the U.N. General Assembly late last
    year, the News.az website published one more provocative article,
    which allegedly deals with a message about the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict addressed to the U.N. General Assembly by Azerbaijani
    Permanent Representative at the U.N. Akshin Mehtiyev.

    This propaganda statement is not an appeal to the U.N., but actually a
    protest against the accusations against the Azerbaijani authorities
    brought by the Armenian Ambassador and other officials at U.N.
    agencies in New York.

    Let us consider the `informative' part of the letter, which allegedly
    deals with historical facts. It is a waste of time, self-deception.
    The letter was obviously aimed at distorting the history and
    development of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. But, leaving the
    contents of the letter to historians and diplomats, we would like to
    address the main point. The main point is that the Azerbaijani
    propaganda is trying to get the Nagorno-Karabakh problem put on the
    U.N. agenda and, supported by a number of states, have resolutions
    adopted to boast about `the great achievements' of Baku School of
    Diplomacy.

    After announcing the failure of the OSCE Minsk Group for the
    settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, official Baku, with its
    potential in this field totally exhausted, is trying to raise the
    issue at the U.N. Later, the list may include NATO, Council of Europe
    and so on. It is high time for the Azeri authorities to realize that
    the Nagorno-Karabakh problem cannot be resolved at the U.N. or any
    other organization that is not entitled to deal with the problem.

    To resolve the conflict, the conflicting parties, first of all
    Azerbaijan, have to show political will to implement the agreements
    reached as a result of negotiations within the OSCE Minsk Group and,
    which is most important, to ensure Nagorno-Karabakh's participation in
    the negotiations.
