Either cynicism or incomprehension of the Armenian Foreign Minister is surprising as he is stating the need to settle the conflict on the basis of the principle of the right for self-determination, when his country held ethnic cleansing in the occupied lands of Azerbaijan, in the result of which Azerbaijanis are not able to live in Nagorno Karabakh.

The due announcement was made by spokesman for Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Khazar Ibrahim, commenting on Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan who said the Karabakh conflict should be settled on the basis of paragraphs 2, 4 and 8 of the Helsinki final act of 1975, in line with which conflicts should be settled peacefully on the basis of the right for self-determination and territorial integrity.

As for the paragraphs of the Helsinki final act, referred to by the Armenian Foreign Minister, Ibrahim noted that by these words, Nalbandyan confirms correctness of Azerbaijan's position and complete inconsistency of Armenia's actions to the said paragraphs.

"As for the need to settle the conflict peacefully, it was Armenia which tried to resolve it by way of war, while the right for self-determination is possible only on the basis of territorial integrity, which is fixed in paragraph 8 of the Helsinki final act", said Ibrahim.
