Armenia tries to distract public attention from occupation of foreign
land - Baku
BAKU. April 27
The Azeri Foreign Ministry has denied Armenia's accusations that it is
violating the ceasefire in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone.
"Official Yerevan is purposefully trying to mislead the international
community. Reality is such that Armenia is an aggressor recognized by
the entire world community that occupied part of Azerbaijan's lands
and conducted massive ethnic cleaning with regard to peaceful Azeris,"
top spokesman for the Azeri Foreign Ministry Elman Abdullayev told
Interfax.
Earlier on Friday the Armenian media reported that three Armenian
servicemen had fallen victim to Azeri fire at frontier posts in the
Tavush region of Armenia.
"Yerevan is trying in every way to freeze the process of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement and perpetuate the status quo
keeping the occupied territories," Abdullayev said.
"However, the incumbent leaders of Armenia must realize that it is
impossible to change by force the borders of sovereign states
recognized by the international community," Abdullayev said.
He said that the entire world community recognizes the currently
occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and seven districts around it as the
sovereign territory of Azerbaijan.
Abdullayev said that Azerbaijan today is not what it used to be in the
early 1990s. "Azerbaijan today is a very powerful state that is
capable of standing for itself and restoring its territorial integrity
and sovereignty. We will never reconcile ourselves with the
occupation. Territorial integrity is sacred for us and we will fight
for it to the end," he said.
