"Azerbaijan possesses enough financial opportunities, forces and
military potential to settle the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict. However, despite this, Azerbaijan has decided to resolve the
situation through negotiations, and we consider that it is a promising
situation," the Director General of the Turkish Marmara Fund, Akan
Suver, stated on 23 November at a briefing in the General Assembly
of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Black Sea Economic Co-operation
(BSEC PA) whilst acting as an observer, Trend reports.
According to him, Azerbaijan has proved to the world that the
Nagorno-Karabakh is not a territory of Armenia, but is Azerbaijani
territory. At present, the international organizations and the world
have publicly acknowledged this fact, he said.
In addition, Suver noted that the NGOs, especially the Marmara Fund,
have participated for the first time at the meeting of the BSEC PA as
observers. As a result of the observation, he appropriately mentioned
the speeches of the Israeli and Georgian delegates who attracted the
participants’ attention to their own problems. Such events should be
an opportunity for Azerbaijan and Turkey to raise issues linked with
Nagorno-Karabakh and other problems, Suver emphasized.
