Baku, 6 May, Interfax-Azerbaijan: The Azerbaijani parliament adopted a
statement on Friday [6 May] on the 13th anniversary of the “occupation
of Susa [town in Karabakh] by the Armenian military”.
“Armenia’s position on the peace talks, its refusal to recognize the
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, modern weapons supplies to the
Armenian army and cease-fire violations increase the danger of the
war resuming,” the statement reads.

to take a constructive position on the peace process and give up its
actions impeding the negotiations within the OSCE Minsk Group”.

Nagornyy Karabakh conflict and the Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe, the Black Sea Economic Cooperation Organization,
the Organization of the Islamic Conference, NATO and the European
Parliament deal with the problem.
