    Azerbaijani FM: Uruguay supports Azerbaijan's territorial integrity

    Azerbaijan, Baku, Sept.10 / Trend, S.Agayeva /

    Uruguay respects international law principles and supports
    Azerbaijan's territorial integrity, Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry's
    official representative Elman Abdullayev told Trend.

    The Uruguayan Foreign Minister Luis Almagro stood for recognition of
    the separatist region in Nagorno Karabakh while commenting on the
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict at a meeting on the Armenian-Uruguayan
    relations initiated by the Armenian National Committee of America in
    South America and Uruguay-Armenia parliamentary group on Friday,
    Armenian media outlets reported.

    "The Azerbaijani Embassy in Buenos Aires is clarifying the situation
    and has already contacted the Uruguayan Foreign Ministry. While
    speaking to our ambassador in Buenos Aires Mammad Ahmadzade, Uruguayan
    Deputy Foreign Minister R. Carreras confirmed that Uruguay respects
    the principles of international law, supports Azerbaijan's territorial
    integrity, as well as mediatory activity of the OSCE Minsk Group,"
    Abdullayev told Trend.
    Obviously, the information was disseminated by the Armenian news
    sites, historically, we have witnessed distortion of information by
    the Armenian media outlets, who always try to pass the desirable for
    reality, he added.

    Abdullayev once again said that the Azerbaijani Embassy in Argentina
    continues to be closely engaged in clarifying the situation.

    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 four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions.
