    ARMENIAN DEPUTY RECOGNIZES BELONGING OF NAGORNO KARABAKH TO AZERBAIJAN

    Member of the Heritage opposition faction Vardan Khachatryan has
    recognized Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and belonging of Nagorno
    Karabakh to Azerbaijan.

    Commenting on the signing of the Moscow Declaration by the Presidents
    of Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia, the deputy pointed to the paragraph
    requiring the return of Azerbaijani refugees to their homes.

    "This mostly relates to the return of refugees to their homes,
    including only Azeri natives, who are temporarily displaced and,
    according to the same rules of international law, should not appear
    in the status of refugees", he explained.

    Khachatryan is right - Azerbaijanis of Nagorno-Karabakh and seven
    adjacent districts, expelled from their land by the armed forces of the
    invader state of Armenia, are not refugees but internally displaced
    persons (IDP) as defined by Geneva convention of 1951 because when
    leaving Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent districts and directing
    to the safe regions of Azerbaijan, they have not crossed the state
    border and stayed in the Azerbaijani state.

    After returning to their homes as a result of the settlement of the
    Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, they still will not
    cross the state border, as Nagorno-Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan. It
    is for this reason that they are currently not considered refugees and
    internally displaced persons, and deputy Khachatryan has mentioned it
    thus recognizing the fact that Nagorno Karabakh belongs to Azerbaijan.
