territorial integrity"
31 January 2007 [17:01] - Today.Az
"Azerbaijan has the right to restore its territorial integrity, and
no one can deprive us of it. We won't give up this right either,"
Foreign Affairs Ministry press and information policy department
chief Tahir Tagizade told while commenting on Armenian Foreign
Minister Vardan Oskanian's statement during his visit in Netherlands
that Azerbaijan will never dare to attack Armenia.
Tahir Tagizade stated that Azerbaijan has never been against the
territorial integrity of any country and attacked sovereignty of any
country, APA reports.
Vardan Oskanian had regarded had co-chairs' proposals as logical,
saying "If these propositions are considered in the settlement, the
conflict will find a solution not contradicting Armenia's national
interests, and ensuring the principles of security and
self-determination of Nagorno Karabakh people and their continual
contacts to Armenia.
Tahir Tagizade said he has to correct Armenian FM's statement.
"Matter is not Nagorno Karabakh people, but Azerbaijani and Armenian
communities living in the region. These people have the right of
self-determination, but only within Azerbaijan's territorial
integrity. This may be the highest authority within Azerbaijan. As
for Armeni's relations with Nagorno Karabakh, Armenian Diaspora in
Nagorno Karabakh has the right to make relations with Armenia as
Azerbaijan has the same right with Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. We
have declared not once about the infrastructural projects considering
both of these issues. As for the security, Azerbaijani officials have
stated that the first phrase of the settlement includes the security
of Nagorno Karabakh people and strengthening of mutual confidence,"
he said.
