We have not occupied lands of any country, we have been subjected to aggression, said spokesman for Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry Eldar Sabiroghlu, at a press conference yesterday.
"The liberation of our lands is our civil and national responsibility and right. No one can force us to give up this way. It would be better to settle this issue peacefully without need for war. However, the peaceful resolution of the conflict is nearing a deadlock. Certainly, Azerbaijan will undertake due steps in this connection, on the basis of the international law", he said.

At the same time, Sabiroghlu noted as to the resolution adopted by the UN General Assembly by Azerbaijan's initiative, that the document speaks of the need for the peaceful resolution of the conflict.

"However, the Minsk Group, empowered to settle the issue and not being able to do it for 15 years, has subjected the resolution of the UN General Assembly to doubt and demonstrated a biassed position. The co-chairing countries should not have acted like that. I would like to note that in case of any resolutions are suitable by certain countries, they are welcomed and the UN powers are immediately brought in force, otherwise, the situation is reverse, which was demonstrated towards Azerbaijan", he announced.
