    AZERBAIJAN LOST THE RIGHT FOR ITS TERRITORY

    Refugees and the Law of Nations civil society network, set up to
    defend the rights and interests of Armenian refugees from Soviet
    Azerbaijan and Nakhidjevan, addressed a message August 1 to the OSCE
    Minsk Group Co-Chairs Bryza, Fassier and Merzlyakov, who are meeting
    in Paris August 2 to 4 to set the schedule of work in the settlement
    of the Karabakh conflict.

    Refugees and the Law of Nations addressed the co-chairs "in an
    attempt to draw the attention of the international organizations to
    the problem of 500 thousand Armenian refugees".

    "We regret to say that none of the proposals of the Minsk Group
    Co-Chairs on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict so far has
    contained a single hint at defending the rights of the Armenian
    refugees displaced from Soviet Azerbaijan and Nakhidjevan, recovery
    of direct and indirect material and moral damage by the Azerbaijani
    government, retrieving Homeland and the country of citizenship," runs
    the message addressed to the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs. The authors
    of the message announce that it is impossible to reach a lasting
    settlement of the conflict over Karabakh without solving the problem of
    the Armenian refugees. Refugees and the Law of Nations also informs
    the co-chairs that the results of a poll among Armenian refugees
    suggest that they will never return to their homes in Azerbaijan.

    "Rejecting that it is the follower of Soviet Azerbaijan, the Republic
    of Azerbaijan not only stated that it is not likely to settle the
    problem of refugees but also took away from itself the right for
    claims to the entire territory of former Soviet Azerbaijan. In terms
    of the law, the only legal follower of Soviet Azerbaijan is Nagorno
    Karabakh Republic. We think that if the Armenian refugees are granted
    nationality of NKR, and the land which lie outside the territory
    where NKR was declared but is under its jurisdiction is granted to
    them as their property, it may partly solve the problem of Armenian
    refugees," runs the message of Refugees and the Law of Nations Civil
    Society Network.
