Protest should be expressed regarding the U.S policy pursued in recent
years on the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement,
a number of MPs from the ruling party believe.
"The current position of the U.S., as a co-chair country [the
OSCE Minsk Group], which undertook the mission to resolve the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, does not correspond to the nature of
relations between this country and Azerbaijan," ruling New Azerbaijan
Party (NAP) Deputy Chairman and Executive Secretary Ali Ahmedov
said today.
According to him, the U.S, as a co-chair country of the OSCE Minsk
Group, provides economic support to Armenia to the detriment of
Azerbaijan's interests.
"This doesn't correspond to the U.S. mission, which positions itself
as town crier of democracy in the world," Ahmedov said.
According to him, Azerbaijani Parliament should take a serious position
on this issue. "The Azerbaijani public, in particular the political
parties should express open protest to the U.S. policy," Ahmedov said.
According to the Deputy Executive Secretary of the ruling New
Azerbaijan Party Siyavush Novruzov, biased attitude of some states
towards the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, is entirely directed against
Azerbaijan. And some forces inside the country support such a policy
of these states, he believes.
"Given all this, it is necessary to express a strong protest
against the processes that run counter to Azerbaijan's interests,"
- Novruzov said.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the United
States - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the
occupied territories.
