Baku - APA. "Demonstrating different positions in Baku and Yerevan
encourages the aggressor to pursue its aggressive policy", said
Spokesman for Azerbaijani Defense Ministry, Lieutenant-Colonel Eldar
Sabiroglu while answering the question on statements made by French
Co-chair of OSCE Minsk Group Bernard Fassier at the seminar of NATO
Parliamentary Assembly "Rose Roth" in Armenia's capital.
"We do not wish war, because it means new destructions and new
tragedies", said Sabiroglu and added that it was also stated by
the President of Azerbaijan over and over again. "However, Armenia
still continues its aggressive policy. What steps should Azerbaijan
take in this situation? Of course, Azerbaijan has nothing to do, but
strengthen its army and equip it with the cutting-edge weapons. And
this process is successfully continuing. That's why, the factors
making the war statements come to agenda should attentively be taken
into consideration. Here emerges a very simple question. What was the
Minsk Group as an international organization established for? What
results has its 15-year activity produced? All these should be
clarified. Before commenting on Azerbaijani Defence Minster Safar
Abiyev's recent statement, Fassier had to take stance on what positive
results his organization brought to the conflict and think about
whether the Minsk Group has power to solve this problem by peaceful
means or not. I am not utterly surprised at French Co-chair's words on
Armenian and Karabakh warriors, because his position has always been
so and defended Armenia unilaterally. Strange to say, what does Mr.
Fassier mean when he said "I personally know about the bravery of
the Armenian and Karabakh warriors?" If he really said such words
then no justice can be expected from this diplomat".
Note that Novosti Armenia reported that while making a speech at
the seminar of NATO Parliamentary Assembly "Rose Roth" in Yerevan,
French co-chairman of OSCE Minsk Group Bernard Fassier stated that
the victory of Azerbaijan in the event of renewed war is impossible,
because he personally knows about the bravery of the Armenian and
Karabakh warriors. Fassier believes that the war will not bring
benefits to Azerbaijan, as cause substantial harm to its financial
interests, oil trade. Co-Chair explained that international investors
investing in the economy of Azerbaijan will not want to have their
funds at risk and abandon investment.
