Azerbaijan informed the international community that it is ready for
a peaceful settlement of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict.
Head of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE, MP Samad Seyidov made
the remark on November 12.
Commenting on the inclusion of the "independence" of the so-called
"Nagorno-Karabakh Republic in the agenda of Armenia's Parliament,
Seyidov told journalists that this act shows that Armenia not only
is unable to negotiate for peace, but is also not ready to fulfill
its obligations.
Seyidov expressed confidence that Armenia's attempts regarding the
recognition of the so-called "Nagorno-Karabakh Republic" will not
be successful.
Armenia captured Nagorno-Karabakh and seven surrounding districts from
Azerbaijan in a war that followed the Soviet breakup in 1991. More
than 20,000 Azerbaijanis were killed, and nearly 1 million were
displaced as a result of the war.
Large-scale hostilities ended with a Russia-brokered ceasefire
in 1994, but Armenia has continued the occupation in defiance of
four UN Security Council resolutions calling for an immediate and
unconditional withdrawal.
Peace talks mediated by Russia, France and the US have produced no
results so far.
