Azerbaijan uses the factor of Islamic solidarity in its own interests,
said Armenia’s Ambassador to Kuwait.

"The Azerbaijani-imitated resolution that was adopted by the UN General
Assembly is a direct evidence of this," Ambassador Vahagn Melikyan
(residence in Abu-Dhabi) said at a meeting with Foreign Minister of
Kuwait, Dr. Muhammad Al-Sabah.

"One-sided resolutions do not contribute to resolution of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict but can tense the situation and be used by Azerbaijan
as a trump card in its warlike position," he said.

On March 14, 2008, with a vote 39 to 7 and 100 abstentions, the
UN General Assembly passed a resolution on Nagorno Karabakh urging
"immediate withdrawal of Armenian forces from the occupied territories
of Azerbaijan."

For his part, Dr. Al-Sabah said his country wants a resolution for
the Karabakh problem via peaceful talks and in compliance with the
norms of international law.

The officials also referred to organization of a visit of Armenian
President to Kuwait.

Ambassador Melikian also met with head of the AAC Kuwait Dioceses,
Archbishop Kyureg Papyan and representatives of the Armenian community,
the RA MFA press office reported.
