decision to give positive result
19 December 2009 [12:07] – Today.Az
`I think the note of protest the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry has
presented to the U.S. State Department is a positive step,’
Azerbaijani member of parliament Fazil Mustafa said.
`The note was a necessary step as U.S. Congress decision to provide
$8 million in financial aid to the break-away Nagorno-Karabakh
contradicts principle of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity,’ the MP
said.
`I think the Azerbaijani society should also do everything possible to
protest the U.S. Congress decision,’ he said.
`I believe the note will not affect Azerbaijan-U.S. relations. But
Azerbaijan did the right thing. We need to protect our rights,’
Musatafa added.
`As to U.S. reaction to Azerbaijan’s note of protest, I think the U.S.
realizes that it is a wrong step. The note of protest will give a
positive result,’ he noted.
