    STATEMENTS OF ARMENIAN SIDE REGARDING REFERENDUM, KALBAJAR AND LACHIN TAKE SPECULATIVE AND PSEUDO CHARACTER - AZERI DEPUTY FM
    Author: S.Agayeva

    TREND Information, Azerbaijan
    July 3 2006

    Many statements of the Armenian side, as well as regarding the
    referendum, status of Kalbajar and Lachin take speculative and pseudo
    character, Araz Azimov, the deputy foreign minister of Azerbaijan,
    told journalists on July 3, Trend reports.

    According to Azimov, the Azeri side has repeatedly stated that only
    national referendums may be held in the territory of Azerbaijan
    and this position has been exactly defined in the Constitution
    of Azerbaijan. Azeri government is not going to stand beyond this
    position and all speculations in this direction are lie, told Azimov.

    He remembered that the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh didn't live
    alone, but together with the Azerbaijanis, and if we speak about
    the democracy, then the demography of the region should be restored
    and Azerbaijanis should return to Nagorno-Karabakh. For this it is
    important to ensure the relevant peaceful conditions and release of
    Azerbaijan's occupied territories. "It a normal logical process,"
    Azimov added. "The settlement of political questions - appointment of
    the status of both peoples' joint living should be made democratically,
    within Law," Azimov told.

    Azimov emphasized that the statements about the issue that as though
    Kalbajar and Lachin will remain under the control of Armenian side is
    absurd because the talks on release of these districts have been held
    from the first day to the present time. Nobody will allow Armenians
    to keep any territory of Azerbaijan under control, Azimov stressed.

    According to Azimov, Lachin problem may be resolved through the joint
    use of the road infrastructure of the district for relation between
    Armenia and Azerbaijan, Armenians and Azerbaijanis in Nagorno-Karabakh,
    as well as with Nakchivan Autonomous Republic.

    "The statements regarding Kalbajar will be lie because the exits
    from this district to Nagorno-Karabakh will be kept under a proper
    control. An international peaceful contingent or controller will be
    placed there, and there will be no danger and threat," Azimov added,
    mentioning the importance of ensuring the security of Azerbaijanis
    in Nagorno-Karabakh. "There could be no one-sided demilitarization
    in the control zone. And the demilitarization should be mutual,
    and Armenian armed forces' remaining there is impossible," told Azimov.
