introduced in report of international crisis group”

“The report of the International Crisis Group (ICG) was actually
far from the reality, therefore I am not sure, the document will be
entirely unbiased”.

Deputy Gyultakin Hadjiyeva told Trend about it.

The International Crisis Group will prepare two reports on the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and disseminate them in September. Some
recommendations are included in the reports, reflecting the situation
in Azerbaijan and Armenia. A workshop, dedicated to the discussion of
this report took place in Tbilisi. At the closed door event, where
along with the International Crisis Group experts, representatives
of Azerbaijan and Armenia also took part, preliminary standpoints on
the report’s essence and details became known.

Hadjiyeva, involved in the workshop as the expert from Azerbaijan,
said, partial position was demonstrated on the Nagorno-Karabakh
issue. Biased attitude to the conflict and attempts to solve it
beyond the frames of the international law and regulations caused
the concern of the Azerbaijani side. Therefore, the deputy said
she adheres to the same opinion of the report to be made public in
September, as before. “Certainly, one should not voice the opinion
before the report is issued. However, I do not think, global
changes have been introduced in this document. Probably, changes,
supplements of a technical character. Perhaps, also, for the period
passed after the workshop in Tbilisi the ICG will study the situation
related to Karabakh deeper and will come to the unbiased, impartial
position in regard of the conflict. However, taking into account the
reality, existing up to now, personally I do not believe there will
be serious changes in favour of Azerbaijan, i.e. in accordance with
the international law.”, Hadjiyeva said.

The deputy noted, although she does not know about the reaction of
the government of Azerbaijan in regard of the report, to be made
public in September, she will declare a protest on her own behalf.

The vice president of the International Crisis Group Alain Deletroz
will arrive in Baku on 8-9 September. He is expected to submit a
report, developed by the Organization and about 20 recommendations
to the government of Azerbaijan.

The International Crisis Group studies existing and potential
conflict hotbeds and make its forecasts monthly for solution of
various conflicts.
