The Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) adopted a final document, which
reaffirms the importance of resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
within Azerbaijan's territorial integrity at a ministerial in Egypt,
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesman Elman Abdullayev said at a
press briefing.
"The final document was adopted by the NAM Coordinating Bureau on
May 9," Abdullayev said.
He said one of the items of the document confirms that the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict poses a threat to stability and security
in the region. The NAM member countries reaffirmed the importance
of the conflict resolution based on three internationally recognized
principles - through negotiations, respect for Azerbaijan's territorial
integrity and non-use of force," Abdullayev said.
According to Abdullayev, the fact that the Movement, which includes
120 countries, has adopted such a document proves that Azerbaijan
has a fair position on the Nagorno-Karabakh issue.
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov is attending at the
ministerial of the NAM member countries in Sharm el-Sheikh (Egypt),
the ministry said.
Mammadyarov will address the ministerial and will hold a series of
bilateral meetings within the event.
Azerbaijan became a member of the Non-Aligned Movement in May 2011.
The Non-Aligned Movement is the second largest political international
organization for its members after the UN. It includes 118 states.
Another 20 countries have observer status.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France and the U.S. -
are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.
