Elections of Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia reveal most
violations of the national legislation of Azerbaijan and international
law, regarding Nagorno Garabagh.

According to Day.Az, the due announcement was made by Khazar Ibragim,
spokesman for Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry during a traditional
briefing.

He said the violation of law is mainly connected with the
non-participation of citizens of Azerbaijan, residing in the lands
occupied by Armenia, in the presidential elections in Azerbaijan.

"The Central Electoral Commission of Azerbaijan has appealed to
international organizations more than ones, however, the issue has
not yet been settled", he said.

Another violation is the election of people from Nagorno Garabagh
for the official positions in Armenia and participation of Garabagh
residents in the elections in Armenia.

"Electoral points in connection with Armenia’s presidential elections
are arranged in Nagorno Garabagh. We are not able to control it",
he said.
