    AZERBAIJANI MP ACCUSES ARMENIAN AUTHORITIES OF SABOTAGE

    "Yerevan, as always, makes false statements in an effort to mislead
    world community," member of Azerbaijani parliament Musa Guliyev said
    commenting on Armenian FM Edward Nalbandian's statement that Azerbaijan
    undermines peaceful resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    The MP says making such statements Nalbandian seeks to justify the
    destructive policy it pursues in talks in eyes of the OSCE Minsk
    Group co-chairs.

    "In fact, it was Armenia who sabotaged adoption of updated Madrid
    principles since they were announced by the OSCE Minsk Group
    co-chairs. In its turn, Azerbaijan adopted these principles with
    minor reservations. This stance is quite acceptable in terms of
    international law. Azerbaijan's move was met with understanding by
    the OSCE Minsk Group."

    "Terms of settlement of this longstanding and difficult problem cannot
    be accepted at one hundred percent. Naturally, the parties to the
    conflict make some minor adjustments to these terms," the MP added.

    "At first, the Armenian side rejected these principles. But after the
    St. Petersburg meeting, it accused Azerbaijan of failure to support
    Madrid principles," the MP noted.

    The MP says the problem is that Armenia is in no condition to make
    decision on the conflict resolution independently.

    "Yerevan is obliged to consult with third countries, especially with
    one for which it stands as an outpost. In this sense, it is possible
    that the ideas expressed by Nalbandian belong to the political forces
    outside Armenia," Guliyev said.

    "Message of the Armenian ministers is addressed neither to Azerbaijan
    nor Armenian community. Azerbaijan is well aware of Armenian
    authorities' habit to lie and turn the facts upside down. Indeed,
    Armenian society has repeatedly expressed its protest against the
    illegal way the current Armenian leadership came to power and against
    their policies," MP said.

    "Another ridiculous statement by Nalbandian is that Azerbaijan uses
    ceasefire violation for propaganda purposes."

    "The solution of the Karabakh problem cannot be limited to OSCE or the
    UN. This is the problem of entire Azerbaijani people. Baku seeks to
    ensure transparency in the process of Karabakh conflict settlement. If
    Armenia is so concerned that violations of the ceasefire are made
    public, let its army stop firing at Azerbaijan's positions. In all
    cases, the truce is violated from the Armenian side and the Azerbaijani
    army gives an adequate response," Guliyev underscored.
