Youths representing different world countries gradually join
discussion of Garabagh conflict. Yesterday "round table" was
organized on initiative of youth movement "Ireli" at international
press center. Representative of Georgia, Turkey, Macedonia, Czech
Republic, India, Saudi Arabia joined partook in the event. The issue
of frozen conflicts by the example of Garabagh problem was discussed.
Azerbaijani political scientists, Rasim Musabekov, briefly informed
participants about the problem. "As a result of military intervention
of Armenia 17% of Azerbaijani territories are occupied. Some sources
having overestimated the figure, inform that 20% of territories are
occupied. Following occupation policy 850,000 Azerbaijanis had to
leave their homes".
R. Musabekov stressed that Armenia violates international laws,
ignores resolutions of UN Security Council concerning liberation of
Azerbaijani territories: "Armenia fails to understand that in five
years military budget of Azerbaijan will be three times as much, and
Azerbaijan may not accept today’s proposals on conflict regulation".
As expert told about consequences of occupation of Azerbaijani
territories on the part of Armenia, and about main point of peace
talks within the frames of OSCE Minsk Group, interests of young people
concerning the issue in question increased. Peak of activity was
mainly observed when after brief essay R. Musabekov at last started
answering questions. Representative of Czech Republic was first to
ask. As it turned out, she failed to understand the fact of ignoring
of 4 resolutions of UN Security Council on liberation of Azerbaijani
territories on the part of Armenia. UN has to influence upon
aggressor-country, she applied to political scientists with surprise.
"What does UN need? To stop the war and bloodshed. And as both
countries neither fight, nor live in peace, apparently it is convenient
to this international organization. Perhaps war is necessary in order
that UN seriously tackle this matter?!, Musabekov answered.
Then, Gulshad from Turkey expressed her bewilderment. "Turkey and
Georgia also have problems with Armenia. Governments of three countries
can join in strengthening their activities to disclose hostile policy
of Armenia", she said. While replying, political scientist wasn’t
completely agree with young Turkish lady.
Accordingly to him, Turkey actively cooperates with Azerbaijan and
Georgia. "Airport which in future will be used with military purposes
was built in Marneuli with the help of Turkey. It would be wrong to
underestimate importance of tripartite cooperation".
Georgian representatives were the most active. Natia said
that Georgians face the problem of territorial claims on the
part of Armenia. "Armenians living in Samzkhe-Javakhetia demand
self-government". Musabekov stressed that such provocations in South
Caucasus is backed by Russia.
