VANCOUVER, Canada, July 2. Armenia continues to
make warmongering statements, disregarding Azerbaijan’s sovereignty
and territorial integrity, Azerbaijani MP Tural Ganjaliyev said,
while speaking at the session of the 2nd Committee of the OSCE
Parliament Assembly, Trend reports.
The usage of fictitious geographical locations in Azerbaijan,
which hold no international or domestic legal standing, serves as
evidence that Armenia’s declarations at the highest level regarding
respect for Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity are contradicted by
Armenia’s actions, including those of its parliamentary delegation
to the OSCE PA, Ganjaliyev said in response to the representative
of Armenian delegation.
“Armenia`s support of Azerbaijan`s territorial integrity could
have been welcomed if it wouldn`t be in contrary to real actions of
this country. Actions undertaken by Armenia aims at undermining the
process of post-conflict normalization between Armenia and
Azerbaijan and continue illegal military presence in the sovereign
territories of Azerbaijan,” he added.
The MP also pointed out that Azerbaijan has never created
impediments for the movement on the Lachin road [connecting
Azerbaijan’s Karabakh and Armenia] and the statements of the
Armenian side about the so-called “blockade” or “ethnic cleansing”
are nothing, but false propaganda.
“Azerbaijan remains committed to the normalization agenda on the
basis mutual recognition of sovereignty and territorial integrity.
At the same time, Azerbaijan will continue defending its
sovereignty and territorial integrity,” he concluded.
