ArmInfo. "It is known to everyone that President of Azerbaijan was not
invited to the recent Nuclear Security Summit in Washington unlike the
presidents of the other two countries in the South Caucasus. Against
background of open concern about the recent harsh steps of the US
Administration in respect to Azerbaijan, Foreign Minister of that
country, Elmar Mammaryarov declared that Azerbaijan was not invited
to the Summit because it has no nuclear weapons. For some unknown
reason he neglected the fact that Armenia and Georgia were invited to
the Summit having no nuclear weapons. It is noteworthy that Foreign
Minister of Turkey Ahmed Davutoglu expressed discontent instead of
the "little brother," Georgy Ghazaryan, Coordinator of NKR League of
Frontier Journalists, told ArmInfo.

"So far, no exact answer has been given to the question why Aliyev was
not invited to Washington. All the attempts of the Turkish party to
overpersuade the US Administration faced harsh rejection of the White
House that insisted on separate consideration of the Turkish-Armenian
and the Karabakh peace processes. In fact, it was a severe reproof to
Aliyev Administration alongside with the recent frequent condemnations
of the human rights infringements, "dynasty totalitarian regime"
and other phenomena in Azerbaijan by the USA. The official Baku has
become the victims of its own policy of pulling the chestnuts out of
the fire by the hands of others, specifically, Turkey. The latter
has essayed to be "the lawyer" of Azerbaijan in the international
arena. From this point of view, Azerbaijan’s absence from the Summit
has a simple explanation: the little brother has nothing to do where
the elder brother acts," he said.
