Baku pretends not to understand that the democratic state of Karabakh, which is in a war of aggression and the blockade, will never be part of Azerbaijan. This was stated by Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharian, commenting on Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov’s statement that inclusion of Karabakh to Azerbaijan and the lack of armed forces in Karabakh are preconditions for the conflict’s settlement.
“Mr. Mammadyarov clearly presented a vision of Baku on how to avoid responsibility for the genocidal against the Armenian population of Azerbaijan, ethnic cleansing of territories around Nagorno-Karabakh and right in it and the military aggression against self-determined Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, as well as how to solve the Karabakh problem. According to Mammadyarov everything is simple and only two conditions should be done. The first one is that the NKR Defense Army to be disarmed and ceases to exist. The second – Karabakh to be included in Azerbaijan”, – he said.
As stressed Kocharian, the logic is simple: “If they did not succeed by military aggression, and after every UN Security Council resolution, calling for a cessation of hostilities, Azerbaijan began a new military operation and suffered another defeat, until it had to ask the organization for a meeting with the leaders of the NKR and Azerbaijan for a truce, it is easier to achieve the goal, if they exclude the possibility of resistance of a new aggression.”
“It is easier to kill the civilian population, as it was in Sumgait, Kirovabad, Shamkhor, Baku, Maraga … And even easier to kill people when they are sleeping. Here then, Azerbaijan would multiply the number of “national heroes”- the number of “Ramil Safarovs”. The Azerbaijani leadership by its alleged lack of understanding continues to obstruct the process of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem,”- said the diplomat.
