Azerbaijan, Baku, 7 July / TrendNews, corr I. Alizade/ Pakistan demands
the implementation of the Resolution on Withdrawal of Armenian Troops
from Occupied Lands of Azerbaijan passed by the UN Security Council
and General Assembly.

" Azerbaijan is a victim of aggression," Mushahid Huseyn Said, chairman
of the External Relations Committee of the Pakistani Senate said to
media in Baku on 7 July.

The UN Security Council passed Resolutions 822, 853, 874 and 884
on the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of the Armenian Armed
Forces from the Azerbaijan lands occupied in 1993.

In spite of the Resolutions, Armenia has not yet withdrawn its armed
forces from the occupied territory of Azerbaijan.

According to Said, Pakistan had lobbied the passing of these
resolutions and supports their implementation.

The delegation of the Pakistani parliament led by Said arrived in
Azerbaijan on 7 July. The delegation includes representatives of five
political parties represented in the Senate of Pakistan.

The visit of the Pakistani MPS to Azerbaijan aims at further
consolidating the relations between parliaments, governments and
peoples of the two countries.
