Trend

Azerbaijan
Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) Secretary General
Nikolai Bordyuzha made statements today beyond his powers, Azerbaijani
MP Aydin Mirzazade told Trend today.
"There is the impression that Bordyuzha is not aware of the
organization's charter," he said. "The CSTO must ensure the security of
member countries. As everybody knows, Nagorno-Karabakh is not Armenian
territory. The whole world and Armenia do not recognize the so-called
'Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.'"
He said the whole world recognizes Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.
Talks are not held between Azerbaijan and the occupied territory's
so-called "leadership." Negotiations are held between Azerbaijan and
Armenia, he said.
"So, many times, the leaders of CSTO member states point out that
the matter concerns Armenia's security," Mirzazade said.
Azerbaijan does not intend to retreat from its recognized borders,
Mirzazade said.
"I regret that a representative of such a vast country like Russia
makes statements that go beyond the charter of the organization he
heads," he said.
He said Azerbaijan may restore its territorial integrity through
diplomatic negotiations or military means. Azerbaijan actively works
in both directions, he said.
"Bordyuzha must apologize to Azerbaijan for its statement," he said.
"If the CSTO head supports the aggressive policy of CSTO member states,
it is necessary to express a strong protest."
MP Fazil Mustafa said Azerbaijan will take action only after all
issues are considered.
"It has become clear for 20 years who will act on the side of Armenia,"
he said. "These statements have no meaning. We need to train at a
high level. In case of a war, we must hit a decisive blow.
Azerbaijan must try to find allies. Turkey is not enough."
