KHAZAR IBRAGIM: "AZERBAIJAN DOES NOT NEGOTIATE ITS TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY AND NEVER WILL"
Today, Azerbaijan
Dec 19 2007
After the OSCE Madrid Ministerial, the Armenian Government officials
started aggressively pursuing propaganda to misrepresent the peace
talks on Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno Karabakh conflict attempting to
mislead both domestic and international public on the substance of
the talks, spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan Khazar
Ibragim said.
He said it was a clear indication of a pre-election hysteria to delude
the Armenian people.
"The talks are built on the clear stance of the full restoration
of Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and sovereignty over the all
occupied Azerbaijani territories and return of the ethnically cleansed
by the Armenian state displaced people to their lands of origin,
including Nagorno Karabakh region of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan does not
negotiate its territorial integrity and never will", Kh.Ibragim said.
At the same time, he noted that Azerbaijan has always demonstrated
its very good will through the search of every opportunity to find
a peaceful solution for the conflict and ruled out exhaustion of
diplomatic options.
"Armenia, on the contrary, through continued military aggression
demonstrates its unchanged policy of the use of force, which
is intolerable. The UN Charter article 51 gives a full right of
self-defense if an armed attack occurs, while we see a paradox when
aggressor state Armenia surpasses a victim of aggression Azerbaijan
in military expenditures as percentage of GDP: 4.3 vs. 3.8. Besides,
Armenia has heavily militarized separatists in Nagorno Karabakh",
he added.
Kh. Ibragim noted that Azerbaijan values the position of international
community, which has unequivocally supported territorial integrity
of Azerbaijan through adoption of resolutions, statements, decisions
both on the State and international organization levels,
"We strongly believe that propaganda by Armenian officials will
ring another alarm bell on the real intentions of the Government of
Armenia", Kh.Ibragim concluded.
