ALIYEV: ARMENIAN OCCUPATION CALLS FOR INTERNATIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT
AA
BAKU — The armed conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in the South
Caucasus region of Nagorno-Karabakh will be resolved within the
framework of international law, according to the President of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev. "The armed conflict over the occupation of
Armenia is the utmost threat in the region," said Aliyev, at a joint
press conference Wednesday held together with Turkish President
Erdoğan, during the latter's two-day official visit to the country.
Nagorno-Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan but it has been under the
control of Armenian soldiers since the end of the Nagorno-Karabakh War
between 1988 and 1994. There are still ongoing military confrontations
between ethnic Azeris and Armenians in the region.
"Armenia holds control of 20 percent of our land. About one million
have been displaced as a result of this occupation," Aliyev said.
"The United Nations Security Council adopted four resolutions
regarding the issue, but Armenia disregards them and does not withdraw
its forces from Nagorno-Karabakh. This issue will be resolved within
the framework of international laws."
Aliyev thanked Turkey for its ever-lasting support to Azerbaijan's
long-simmering case and said, "Turkey's stand on this issue is very
important for us."
