AZIMOV: THOSE SPEAKING OF SECURITY OF ARMENIANS IN THE CONFLICT ZONE DO NOT TOUCH ON THAT OF AZERBAIJANIS

The liberation of both Kalbajar and Lachin regions has been the
topic of discussions from the very first day and will be discussed,"
Azerbaijani deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov told journalists while
commenting on the statements released by Armenian sources regarding
the returning of the entire Lachin and some part of Kalbajar not
being discussed (APA).
The deputy minister said Kalbajar and Lachin should surely be liberated
like other regions adjoined to Nagorno-Garabagh province of Azerbaijan.
"Armenia's attempts to take any territory as hostage will be
prevented. As coming to the issue on Lachin, there is one way
that connects Azerbaijan, Armenia, Armenians and Azerbaijanis
in Nagorno-Garabagh as well as inseparable part of Azerbaijan,
Nakhchivan. The full use of this way would promote to solve the Lachin
problem. Armenia's main argument- the claim on establishing reliable
and direct contact with Nagorno-Garabagh Armenians can be ensured
by mutual using of this way, I think. As coming to Kalbajar, I must
say the one, who claims Kalbajar being a special problem, is wrong,
because the roads connecting Kalbajar with Nagorno-Garabagh will
be controlled. International contingent can be deployed there and
there will be no security problem. I don't know why those speaking
of security of Armenians in this region do not touch on that of
Azerbaijanis. The demilitarization in the conflict zone cannot possibly
be one-sided. In general, the demilitarization of this zone would help
provide the security of both sides. It is impossible to disarm the
Azerbaijani side only but not Armenia," Mr.Azimov said. He recommended
the opposite side to a little bit renounce their claims.
