Baku: The illegal visit of German Bundestag member Jurgen Klimke to
Azerbaijan's Nagorno Karabakh region occupied by Armenia caused the
concern of the Azerbaijanis living in Germany.
The State Committee for Work with Diaspora told APA that the
Coordination Center for Azerbaijanis in Germany has sent a letter
of protest to the Bundestag in this regard: 'This step of German
Bundestag member Jurgen Klimke is contrary to the resolution adopted
by the United Nations and European Parliament and supporting the
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan Republic. Nagorno Karabakh is an
integral part of Azerbaijan Republic and all visits to this region
should be coordinated by the Azerbaijani managing bodies.'
The letter noted that Jurgen Klimke's illegal visit to Nagorno Karabakh
is also contrary to the policy of The Federal Republic of Germany
recognizing Azerbaijan's territorial integrity: 'His meeting with
the leader of the unrecognized so-called republic can be assessed not
only as the violation of the international law and justification of
actions of the aggressor, but also as a step taken against the policy
pursued by the European Union and international forces towards peaceful
resolution of the conflict. This action intensifies already difficult
relations in the South Caucasus and deal a blow to the peace talks.'
On behalf of the Azerbaijanis living in Germany, the Center emphasizes
the importance of preventing such provocative actions in the future and
considers that such a control will contribute to further developing
Azerbaijan's relations with the European countries, especially with
Germany.
