The position of the Organization of the Islamic Conference on
Nagorno-Karabakh has been added to the draft resolution on Azerbaijan
named 'The situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan' which
will be discussed on December 13th at the UN General Assembly session.
The OIC opinion on Karabakh was raised by the Permanent Representative
of Tajikistan to the UN who, as a chair of the OIC Conference Group in
New York, recently addressed the UN Secretary-General and the President
of the Security Council asking them to take into consideration the
Dushanbe Declaration of the 37th session of the Council of Foreign
Ministers of the OIC, held in May 2010.
'We condemn the aggression of Armenia against Azerbaijan and call
for the resolution of the conflict on the basis of respect for the
territorial integrity and inviolability of the internationally
recognized borders of the Republic of Azerbaijan', says the
Ambassador's letter.
According to the declaration, the OIC, as the second largest
intergovernmental organization after the United Nations, should play
a key role in strengthening mutual coordination and cooperation to
confront the challenges and threats facing the Islamic countries.
The UN News Center representative also said that, another draft
resolution connected with Azerbaijan - 'Protracted conflicts in the
GUAM area and their implications for international peace, security
and development' will also be discussed on December 13th, on the same
day with 'The situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan'.
