The Armenian diaspora is using all the means to damage Azerbaijan's
reputation on the international arena, the deputy head of the
Azerbaijani presidential administration, chief of the administration's
foreign relations department, Novruz Mammadov tweeted Nov. 21.
"Some in the West and Europe easily fall for that while expressing
their position," Mammadov said in another tweet.
"Regrettably this becomes occasionally evident in the co-chairs'
positions. Telling example of this are the statements regarding the
helicopter," he added.
Earlier on Nov. 12, an Armenian Mi-24 military helicopter flying
1,700 meters northeast of the Kengerli village of Azerbaijan's Aghdam
district attacked the Azerbaijani army positions. The Azerbaijani
side shot down the helicopter.
The OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs Igor Popov (Russia), James Warlick
(US) and Pierre Andrieu (France) expressed concern over the lack of
humanitarian access to the wreckage of the downed military helicopter,
according to a message from the OSCE.
The message said the helicopter's wreckage is in a mined area on
neutral territory of the contact line between the Armenian and
Azerbaijani troops.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in
1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. As a
result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied
20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and
seven surrounding districts.
The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs
of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the US are currently
holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the UN Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.
