Baku declares inefficiency of talks with Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh problem
Azerbaijan, Baku, May 8 / Trend A.Akhundov /
Armenia still poses a threat to peace and stability in South Caucasus,
and continues its occupation of Azerbaijani territories. If it goes
on, the Azerbaijani authorities, will demonstrate their will using all
means, Azerbaijani Presidential Administration Social and Political
Department Chief Ali Hasanov said on Tuesday, answering journalists'
questions about the 20th anniversary of Shusha's occupation.
"Azerbaijan has repeatedly condemned the inhumane activities of the
Armenians, condemned them for endangering peace and stability in South
Caucasus. Azerbaijan denounces and condemns the steps undertaken by
Armenia that complicate the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict," Hasanov said.
He said that in this regard Azerbaijan has raised the issue at the
relevant global institutions.
"Negotiations, held with the Armenians, are still ineffective,"
Presidential Administration department chief stressed.
Armenian troops carried out a military operation on May 8, 1992 to
occupy Shusha. Artillery shots were fired over the city which
continued up to 6 pm. Over 1,000 Armenian soldiers attacked Shusha
from three sides.
Some 248 historical facilities, eight museums, one photo gallery,
eight music schools and tens of cultural facilities lie under Armenian
occupation in Shusha.
During Shusha's occupation, hundreds of innocent people died, nearly
60 citizens, including women and children were taken prisoners and are
missing. Most have not been released yet. Nearly 22,000 people became
homeless.
