Armenia
YEREVAN. - Certain territories of Karabakh are under occupation of
Azerbaijan, said Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandyan at
Armenia-Diaspora Forum, representing the process of settlement of
the Karabakh conflict since 2001.
"What Baku states today is a delusion. They say that during 2010-2011
the OSCE Minsk Group made suggestions that have changed the essence of
the negotiation process and basic principles. During the current year
Azerbaijan has repeatedly demonstrated its non-constructive approach
to the settlement process, in particular, after the meeting of three
presidents in Sochi and Kazan," said Nalbandyan.
Referring to the Madrid principles, Nalbandian noted that Armenia will
continue its policy on the Karabakh issue, which has been a priority
for the past 20 years.
"Armenia is open for negotiations, contrary to Baku, which accepts
only two of the basic principles and only in its own interpretation.
Baku accepts the principles of territorial integrity and in this
context we should stress that some of Karabakh territories are under
Azerbaijani occupation."
