Forum of World Azerbaijanis condemns the fact that the Armenians
are working out the "general plan" of the occupied Azerbaijani city
of Shusha and are involving an American company in their illegal
activities. The protest statement of the Karabakh Forum says that
the separatists are preparing reconstruction works in connection with
the 15th anniversary of the occupation of Shusha City.

"The USA should ensure the respectful attitude of its companies
towards international law and territorial integrity of states.

Armenia’s actions of destroying monuments and samples of the village
culture and falsifying the history are acts of vandalism," mentioned
by the statement.

The International Karabakh Forum calls on the international community
and co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group to express their attitude
towards these events, and Government of Azerbaijan to take measures
to release occupied territories.
