Recently quite sensitive statements have been voiced connected with
Azerbaijan's becoming non-permanent member of the UN Security Council,
Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandian stated at the National
Assembly today, adding that there is no need to treat it with such
emotions.
As to the transfer of the NK issue to the Security Council, Nalbandian
said the co-chairing countries are permanent members of the Security
Council and have many times stated that the issue must be solved within
the framework of the OSCE Minsk group and not be transferred to other
platforms. "I think the clear response has been given and there is
no need to fall into senses because of statements of Azerbaijan,"
the minister stressed.
To say that becoming of the member of the Security Council witnesses
that the international community assists the decision of Azerbaijan
is not right, Nalbandian stressed. "Today Azerbaijan has put itself
in a deadlock as the international community has already expressed its
decision that corresponds to the one of Armenia and not Azerbaijan's,"
the minister stressed.
He said these opinions have been expressed on the highest levels in
L'Aquila, Muskoka, Deauville as well as within the framework of the
OSCE - in Athens, Helsinki, Almaty and Astana. "And during the Kazan
meeting Baku rejected the presented documents," the minister reminded,
stressing that Armenia's positions coincide with the statements and
documents and on their basis our country is ready to continue the
talks and solve the issue.
"Armenia will continue the balanced policy connected with the NK
conflict settlement, establishment of stability in the region and
good-neighborly relations," Nalbandian pointed out.
