UN concerned over burning of green areas in Azerbaijan's occupied territories

Armenia and Azerbaijan  are obliged to protect the environment in the Caucasus, despite the current conflict, Director of the United Nations Environment Programme's (UNEP) Regional Office for Europe Christophe Bouvier said in Baku today.

He commented on the situation in connection with the arson of green space in the occupied Azerbaijani territories by the Armenians.

"The environment is under serious threat as a result of the conflict. Natural pearls of the region belong to all mankind. They should be protected and no conflict should affect it," Bouvier said.
