July 23 2007
Agshin Mehdiyev, Permanent Representative of Azerbaijan to the United
Nations, told the APA’s US bureau that voting on the future status
of Kosovo in UN Security Council does not contradict Azerbaijani
interests.
Ambassador Mehdiyev underlined that the ongoing events on Kosovo have
nothing to do with the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, "Russia could use
its veto power during voting conducted in the UN Security Council,
but in the Contact Group that also includes the US, Germany, France,
Italy, the UK, Russia will not be able to do that.
The current events on the Kosovo conflict have not anything to do with
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. The US, UN and Western leaders have
reiterated that the Balkan conflict cannot be precedent to the conflict
between Azerbaijan and Armenia," the Ambassador concluded./APA/
