RA MFA: Azerbaijan attempted to misinform UN member states
15.03.2008 13:33 GMT+04:00

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `I hope Azerbaijan got the message
from the international community. Taking the lead of
the co-chairs, a majority of member states repelled
the one-sided approach,’ said Armenia’s Foreign
Minister Vartan Oskanian when commenting on the vote
on Azerbaijan’s resolution in the UN General Assembly.

Minister Oskanian characterized the resolution as
hypocritical. `On the one hand, in an effort to
misinform member states, the resolution included a
paragraph that supports the OSCE Minsk Process. On the
other hand, Azerbaijan blatantly ignored the OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs position. The co-chair countries
had made clear they would not support the resolution
and in fact voted against the resolution.’

`Now we wonder what Azerbaijan’s next move will be,’
he said. `We question whether this resolution was
intended to derail the negotiating process or whether
they got the clear message and will return to the
negotiating table to work on a negotiated, compromise
lasting solution,’ the Minister said, the RA MFA press
office reported.
