United Nations Azerbaijan has distributed another document in the
United Nations relating to Armenia`s military aggression against it.

The report, "Military aggression of the Republic of Armenia against
the Republic of Azerbaijan: reasons and results", has been distributed
in the UN General Assembly and Security Council.

The 30-page document features several chapters, including The
History of the Conflict, The Situation in the Occupied Territories
of Azerbaijan, Mediation Efforts and Azerbaijan`s Position on the
Conflict`s Settlement.

The report reiterates Azerbaijan`s "international legal norms-based"
position on the settlement of the conflict.

The report also recalls a memorandum issued by the Armenian permanent
representation to the UN in response to Azerbaijan`s documents.

"What is very interesting is that the Armenian memorandum did not
list relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council and General
Assembly and OSCE Parliamentary Assembly as well as the OSCE
Chairman-in-Office`s statements among documents related to the
conflict`s resolution," the report underlines.

"Although it is the United Nations` resolutions that are the most
crucial documents regarding the dispute`s settlement. The Azerbaijani
side expresses hope the UN member states will assure Armenia to
give up its aggressive policy, respect international legal norms and
demonstrate a sincere position in the peace talks to find a durable
solution to the conflict," the report stresses.
