Baku urges Europe to avoid "double standards"

Azerbaijan urged the EU and the European Parliament to take a position based on the norms and principles of international law and to avoid "double standards" in the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov said at a conference "EU-Azerbaijan: new horizons for the partnership" organized by the European People's Party in Brussels.

Azerbaijani Foreign Minister appreciated the resolution on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict adopted in the European Parliament in 2010. According to the resolution, the world public was informed about the importance of the Armenian forces' withdrawal from the Azerbaijani occupied territories and thousands of Azerbaijani internally displaced persons' return home. Minister expressed confidence that this document will not be the last one among similar documents, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said.
