Armenian occupation regime has once again demonstrated its disrespect
for international organizations and international law, conducting
fictitious "parliamentary elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijani
Karabakh Liberation Organization stated.
"Details of the Armenian sources about these "elections", including
about the participants of the "elections", about the alleged
democratic struggle is far from reality, and reflect another Armenian
falsification," the Karabakh Liberation Organization (KLO) said in
its statement made on May 24.
KLO believes that with such games, the government of Armenia is
trying to promote and introduce the world with a fictitious regime in
Nagorno-Karabakh. "People invited to go there from different countries
all have been bribed by the Armenian diasporas. There is no connection
between them and the democratic process," said the statement.
The statement says that most of the blame for the fact that Armenia
continues similar games lies on the international organizations.
"Instead of making meaningless statements, the international
organizations, separate countries, must introduce strict sanctions
against the occupier - Armenia. If there is no sanction, then they will
again act from a position of double standards and actually create all
the conditions for Armenia to continue such games," the document says.
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 resolutions
on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the occupied
territories.
