Baku. Elbrus Seyfullayev-APA. "Azerbaijan has only problem and it is
non-solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict yet, which is a source of
threat to whole region.
We hold peace talks, but no results have been achieved yet", said
President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in his address to the special
meeting of Milli Majlis on June 19 dedicated to 90th anniversary
of Azerbaijani Parliament. The President said four UN resolutions
on the liberation of Azerbaijani lands had not been implemented
yet. "Recently UN General Assembly adopted resolution on the
situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan and supported
Azerbaijan’s position. Organization of the Islamic Conference,
Council of Europe, OSCE and other international organizations
also support Azerbaijan. Unfortunately there is no result despite
all these efforts. One million Azerbaijani refugees and internally
displaced persons were deprived of the elementary Human Rights". The
President said Azerbaijan’s cultural heritage, historical monuments
and cemeteries had been destroyed in the occupied territories, but
the international community remained indifferent attitude to all
these developments. "All countries should obey the international
law. Otherwise it will be impossible to secure the international
law. The international organizations should respect themselves". Ilham
Aliyev said Azerbaijan would secure its territorial integrity. "Our
concession in the solution of this problem is the giving of highest
administration right to Nagorno Karabakh. Nagorno Karabakh conflict
is a threat not only to Azerbaijan, but to entire region. Azerbaijan
has achieved successes in all spheres and international law is in our
favor. We believe that the problem will find its peaceful solution".
