/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Judging from the official statements made by
Russia, the USA and France before and after the General Assembly,
they voted against the resolution, because the Azerbaijan’s project
contradicted, firstly, the common fundamental principles and norms of
the International law, as well as the criterion of the international
legitimacy of their application. Secondly, the conduct of Azerbaijan
does not coincide with the balanced approach of the Minsk Group which
endorses the solution of the Karabakh conflict within the norms of
the international law. 100 abstained members of the UN virtually
demonstrated their understanding of the balanced position of Russia,
the U.S. and France," Head of the Institute for National Strategic
Studies of the MoD, Doctor of Political Sciences, Major General Hayk
Kotanjian said in an interview with the press center of the RA Ministry
of Defense.
"39 UN member states, which supported the resolution, were
mostly represented by the Organization of Islamic Conference and
the GUAM. Azerbaijan perceives the designated to her role in the
European Energy policy as a "historical" mission of geo-economic and
geo-strategic importance to compete with Russia.
Playing on the strategic interests of the EU, the U.S., Russia,
Iran, Turkey and Central Asia, Baku is trying to at most bid for
highest stakes in this way to use this resource for illegal forcing
through its interests in the Karabakh settlement. In pursuit of these
purposes Azerbaijan will now allow itself to blackmail Russia, the
U.S., France and the Minsk Group on the whole. Many international
observers Azerbaijan is losing the sense of reality," he said.
