The NKR Announcement Is Not A Ground For Hajieva

THE NKR ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A GROUND FOR HAJIEVA

Azerbaijan expresses its readiness to provide the Armenian residents
of the NKR adjacent territories with conditions corresponding
international norms on condition that these lands are returned to
them. Today the Azeri delegation rendered a press release in the PACE
which was presided over by 5 Azeri delegates and not by Samed Seidov
as it was anticipated beforehand.

The most active was Gyultekin Hajieva, the Azeri Parliament deputy
who presented the deputies (who were mainly Azeris) how the Armenians
occupied the 20% of the Azeri lands, how they set the forests adjacent
to the NKR on fire. In answer to the remark of "A1+" that the OSCE
monitoring has not revealed any evidence of burning Hajieva announced
that the monitoring was held only in one territory and it was aimed
at revealing cease-fire violations. When we showed her the territory
where monitoring was held on the map distributed by her Hajieva
announced that she doesn’t want to comment on an announcement put into
circulation by "unknown and not existing NKR authorities." Naturally
she doesn’t agree with the fact that the monitoring was held by the
suggestion of the NKR in order to check the fact of burning. When
asked why Azerbaijan didn’t apply to the OSCE with the same request
she answered that they have applied both to the OSCE and to the UNO.

The Azeri deputies announced that prior to coming to the PACE summer
summit they had gone to the borderline and seen the burning areas
with their own eyes and were surprised that nobody made an attempt to
extinguish the fire. "The territories are under Armenia’s control and
the fire must be put out be it caused deliberately or by aridity,"
said Deputy Sabir Hajiev after the press release. "Republic of
Nagorno-Karabakh," we tried to find out whether it existed, "That
territory is not Nagorno-Karabakh, it is Aghdam," interrupted Gyultekin
Hajieva and entered the PACE hall.

By the way, Gyultekin Hajieva announced during the press release that
the Azeri society treats the conflict settlement procedure within
the scope of the Minsk group rather rhetorically; "There has been
no positive achievement within the recent 10 years. The Co-Chairs
wish the matter to be solved in 2006 but the time showed that their
optimistic announcements are groundless."

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
