Azerbaijani Defense Ministry: Armenia openly states Russia and CSTO give it confidence

20 July 2010 [17:33] - TODAY.AZ
Spokesman for the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Eldar Sabiroglu commented on the interview of Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan with Russian media.
Ohanyan's approaches to the situation in the region and settlement of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict are not surprising. He has repeatedly made such statements previously. This time, Armenian minister said openly that Russia and the CSTO give confidence to Armenia," Sabiroglu said.

Sabroglu said that settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict within the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan to restore stability in the South Caucasus is an indisputable fact.

"Delayed de-occupation of territories further complicates the situation in the region. Ohanyan speaks about everything except the Madrid principles. The reasons are known. Until the occupation policy remains in memory of Armenian power, a peaceful solution to the conflict will be delayed," Sabiroglu added.

"Seyran Ohanyan, in his interview, recalling the military budget of Azerbaijan, accuses it of the militarist policy. The logic totally refutes these claims. Azerbaijan has not occupied anyone's territory, including Armenia. It is Azerbaijan's sovereign right to use an acceptable way for de-occupation of its lands," Sabiroglu noted.
