  • Azerbaijan Includes Its Item In OSCE PA Draft Resolution On NKR

    AZERBAIJAN INCLUDES ITS ITEM IN OSCE PA DRAFT RESOLUTION ON NAGORNO
    KARABAKH

    WASHINGTON, JUNE 30. ARMINFO. The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly calls
    on the member-states of the OSCE Minsk Conference to step up their
    efforts to achieve the peaceful resolution of the conflict, and
    invites their national delegations to the Assembly to report annually
    to the Assembly on the action of their Governments in this respect,
    says the supplementary item on Nagorno Karabakh conflict by Azeri
    representative Sattar Safarov.

    A source at OSCE PA reports the sponsor of the item as urging Armenia
    and Azerbaijan to comply with the resolutions 822 (1993), 853 (1993),
    874 (1993) and 884 (1993) of the United Nations Security Council,
    as well as other decisions of the international organizations with
    regard to the conflict, in particular by refraining from any armed
    hostilities and by withdrawing military forces from all occupied
    territories of Azerbaijan.

    Safarov calls on the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs to speed up their
    efforts for the conclusion of a political agreement on the cessation
    of the armed conflict, the implementation of which will eliminate
    major consequences of the conflict for all parties and establish
    conditions for safe return of refugees and internally displaced
    persons to their native lands. He also calls upon all OSCE member
    states to contribute efficiently to the soonest peaceful settlement
    of the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan,

    Besides Safarov calls on Armenia and Azerbaijan to make use of the
    OSCE Minsk Process and to put forward to each other, via the Minsk
    Group, their constructive proposals for the peaceful settlement of
    the conflict in accordance with the universally recognized norms and
    principles of international law,

    Safarov fully supports the activity of the Special Representative
    of the OSCE PA Chairman on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and invites
    him to submit to the Assembly an objective and comprehensive report
    on the conflict as soon as possible,

    He urges Armenia to stop the continuation of the settlement of
    civilian population in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan,
    which can impede the peaceful solution of the conflict and urges the
    international community not to remain indifferent to the deplorable
    living conditions of the refugees and IDPs and continue rendering
    humanitarian assistance to them,

    Finally Safarov appeals to the international organizations, parliaments
    and governments of the world countries to enhance their efforts
    in order to facilitate the conclusion of a just peace agreement
    between Armenia and Azerbaijan based on the norms and principles
    of international law and to continue monitoring on a regular basis
    the peaceful resolution of this conflict and decides to revert to
    considering this issue at its 2006 Annual Session.

    The draft resolution will be discussed during the OSCE PA session in
    Washington July 1-6.
