Azerbaijan has the right to release its occupied territories, the
Deputy Executive Secretary of ruling New Azerbaijan Party (NAP),
MP Mubariz Gurbanli told Trend, commenting on the statement of the
Armenian foreign minister Vardan Oskanyan that he made in regard with
Nagorno-Karabakh at the press-conference on September 29.
Oskanyan stated that if Azerbaijan resorts to the way of war in
the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, then Armenia will
not stay away and will ensure the security of the population of
Nagorno-Karabakh. In addition he expressed attitude towards other
questions.
Gurbanli stressed that Azerbaijani army will not combat with the
population of Nagorno-Karabakh, but with the occupant Armenian army
situated in the occupied Azerbaijani lands. "With this word, Oskanyan
wants to say that as though Armenia stands away and observes the
process. If Azerbaijan chooses the way of war, then it will also
release the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh from the occupation of
Armenian army," Gurbanli stressed.
In addition, he emphasized that irrespective of where and how Oskanyan
makes speeches, Azerbaijan has the right to liberate its occupied
territories. "We received this right from the Regulation of the United
Nations Organization. The head of our country took the priority of
resolving the conflict through a peaceful way. The war will be chosen
when the potential of the peaceful talks will come to an end. Such
situation hasn’t emerged yet. Azerbaijan wants to settle the problem
without bloodshed. But the senseless statements of Oskanyan prevent the
regulation of the conflict in a peaceful manner," Gurbanli concluded.
