We will witness progress in resolving Nagorno-Karabakh conflict soon:
Azerbaijani MP
05 December 2009 [12:16] – Today.Az
Day.Az interview with member of Azerbaijani Milli Majlis (parliament)
Zahid Oruj.
Day.Az: What is your assessment of the outcome of the Munich meeting
between Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents to resolve the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict?
Zahid Oruj: Probably, the presidents have reached some consensus at a
meeting in Germany. Only question is whether this consensus is apoint
of contact, which the sides reached before this meeting which Armenia
has already manages to reduce to zero.
I think the negotiations that are likely to have been constructive in
nature were result of statements made by Azerbaijan. I think we will
witness progress in the resolving the Karabakh conflict in near
future. Time will show whether this progress will be return of seven
Armenia- occupied regions or any other step.
You probably remember that Armenian sniper killed Azerbaijani civilian
on day of the Munich negotiations. How do you comment on the incident?
Many civilians has been killed after the ceasefire agreement was
reached. Nevertheless, I think this killing of innocent civilian is
not accidental. This is a kind of Armenian response to Azerbaijan’s
statements.
I recently read a few articles in which Armenia is trying to push
Azerbaijan and the OSCE Minsk Group, as if it was Azerbaijan who
declared a war on Armenia. But one should not forget that Armenia has
invaded Azerbaijan’s territory and Azerbaijan must mobilize all its
forces against Armenia.
How would you predict further development of events in the frontline
of the Azerbaijani and Armenian armies?
The situation in the frontline depends on political situation to
settle the Karabakh problem. The stronger Azerbaijan’s position on the
conflict settlement, the more often Armenia will try to provoke it on
the war front.
