STEPANAKERT.- The Nagorno-Karabakh Foreign Ministry has issued a
statement in connection with a note filed by Azerbaijan's Permanent
Mission to the OSCE. The statement is as follows:
"The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Ministry of Foreign Affairs in
connection with the note spread by Azerbaijan's Permanent Mission
to the OSCE, concerning the alleged resettlement of the NKR
territories, draws the OSCE and its country-members' attention to
the propagandistic character of the given document, which aims to
deceive the international community and destabilize the negotiation
process and the situation in the region.
In spite of the obvious fact that the NKR has its sovereign right
to receive migrants in its territory, the spread misinformation
is absolutely groundless, and the results of the monitoring
on the situation in these territories, carried out by the OSCE
Assessment Mission in 2010, can proof it. As for the report by the
OSCE Fact-Finding Mission in 2005, which the Permanent Mission of
Azerbaijan refers to, we consider necessary to remind that according
to the statement by the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen, the mission
did not find out "any clear organized resettlement" and "did not
determine that the resettlement resulted from a deliberate policy".
In this context, we consider necessary to once more draw the attention
of the Organization on Security and Cooperation in Europe to the fact
that Azerbaijan continues the policy of resettlement in the Shahumyan
region, Getashen sub-region and the other NKR regions, being under
the occupation of Azerbaijan. Moreover, Azerbaijan has over the years
withheld its consent to carry out such a monitoring in these regions,
which testifies to the unquestionable fact of their resettling and
cannot but provoke the OSCE and other international organizations'
serious anxiety.
As for the attacks of the official Baku concerning the July 19
presidential elections in the NKR, attended by representatives from 22
countries as international observers, including the OSCE, members of
European Parliament, and recognized as free, just, transparent and
meeting the international standards, similar attitude is another
proof of the fact that Azerbaijan with its totalitarian regime,
where the power passes from father to son, where "the elections" -
are just a show and farce, cannot respect democratic values, human
rights and freedom, as well as the principle of the electiveness of
the authorities on the basis of real expression of citizen's will."
