ArmInfo.Gas supply to Nagorno-Karabakh is an internal affair of Azerbaijan. Such an odious statement was made today by the head of the press service of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry, Leyla Abdullayeva, who thus apparently decided to justify the humanitarian terror perpetrated by the Azerbaijani authorities against the civilian population of Nagorno-Karabakh.
"The Armenian Foreign Ministry tried a few days ago to interfere in the internal affairs of Azerbaijan regarding the participation of international organizations in an event held in Azerbaijan (in the Armenian Shushi, occupied by Azerbaijan, ed. note) a few days ago, and now it is trying to interfere in the internal affairs of Azerbaijan on a different topic," Abdullayeva noted, reacting to the statement of the Armenian Foreign Ministry regarding the need to resume gas supply to Artsakh.
Considering this scandalous statement as insufficient, the Baku diplomat decided, for reliability, to accuse Armenia of being unconstructive and spreading unfounded allegations. As if it is not Azerbaijan since March 8 that has been terrorizing the population of Artsakh by opening and closing the gas pipeline valve, but Armenia.
And in conclusion, she also decided to make "recommendations" to Armenia to ensure the implementation of its obligations under the tripartite statements, "including the withdrawal of the remnants of the armed forces located in the region", and thereby contribute to regional peace and security, and not act with unsubstantiated claims.
At the same time, Abdullayeva for some reason forgot that the only one who does not fulfill the agreements under these conditions is Baku, which not only, in violation of the 8th paragraph of these statements, holds Armenian prisoners of war and civilians hostage, but also prevents the assessment mission from arriving in the region UNESCO, as well as the co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group. And in parallel with this, the Azerbaijani military is invading the sovereign territories of the Republic of Armenia day by day, capturing more and more new areas. Moreover, taking into account this statement of official Baku, one can assume what fate awaits the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh if they suddenly will be under the jurisdiction of Azerbaijan. After all, the Karabakh liberation movement was started in 1988 not from the good life of Armenians in the NKAR. And then, the Azerbaijani authorities humiliated and terrorized the Armenian population in every possible way, did everything so that they left their homes and left Nagorno-Karabakh. This policy continues today. And the entire civilized world turns a blind eye to these egregious actions of the Azerbaijani authorities - petrodollars and energy resources have eclipsed their brains and clouded their eyes.
It should be noted that since March 21, the population of Artsakh has been deprived of gas again. " As a result of the direct intervention of the Azerbaijani side, the gas supply to the Artsakh Republic was again disrupted. We have sufficient grounds to claim that during the repair works of the gas pipeline exploded on March 8, the Azerbaijani side installed a valve, through which it disrupted the gas supply hours ago. Azerbaijan uses the unfavorable weather conditions to create additional humanitarian problems for our population and makes a criminal action. The command of the Russian peacekeeping force stationed in Artsakh was immediately informed about the situation, together with which the Artsakh authorities are making appropriate efforts to restore gas supply. At the same time, we urge citizens to use electricity as sparingly as possible to avoid possible power outages," the Artsakh Information Headquarters said in a statement. The situation has not yet been resolved. More than 100,000 people freeze in their homes in Artsakh amid the inaction of the international community.
