U.S. Congressman Steve Stockman has said Armenia bears responsibility
for violating the airspace of Azerbaijan. "All Members of Congress
should be concerned with reports of the escalation along the line
contact between the forces of Azerbaijan and Armenia. It is unfortunate
that the latest increase in tensions resulted in the downing of
the helicopter of the armed forces at Armenia, which was violating
the airspace of Azerbaijan. The loss of life in this incident was
regrettable but the Armenian command bears much responsibility for
ordering the helicopter into Azerbaijani territory," he said in
a statement.The Congressman said: "It is time for Azerbaijan and
Armenia to faithfully work toward peace and to respect each other's
territorial integrity, including air space.""I call on the governments
of Azerbaijan and Armenia to exercise restraint and refrain from
actions than can further destabilize the situation, and I call on the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict, as the U.S is a co-chair of the Minsk Group
of the organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE),"
Mr. Stockman said.
