Baku. Ramil Mammadli - APA. "The OSCE Minsk Group must find a solution
to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict as soon as possible. It is a part of
the duties and authorities of the organization", Turkish ambassador
to Azerbaijan Ismayil Alper Coskun told journalists, APA reports.
He said that the main reason of the incidents on the contact line of
the troops was the continuation of aggression policy by Armenia.
The ambassador underlined the importance of the soonest settlement of
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict: "Turkey supports the activity of the
OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs. However, they have not achieved serious
progress for more than 20 years. The announcement of ceasefire between
Azerbaijan and Armenia must not be understood as the settlement of
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. The world community must know that
currently, a part of Azerbaijani territories is still under the
occupation of Armenia. There are also relevant resolutions adopted
by the UN Security Council on this conflict."
The ambassador said that Armenians' intention to open Khojaly airport
aimed to distract attention: "Khojaly airport and the area it is
situated in, belong to Azerbaijan. No country can carry out activities
here without the permission of Azerbaijan. By opening Khojaly airport
Armenia wants to distract the world's attention from its occupation
policy. We hope that this conflict will be solved peacefully soon. If
it is not solved peacefully, Azerbaijan has great potential to liberate
its territories from the occupation."
