Azerbaijan's territorial integrity must not be matter of debate: Azerbaijani FM

03 July 2009 [08:33] - TODAY.AZ
Azerbaijan does not see any other ways to solve the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, but to give the autonomy to the Nagorno-Karabakh within its boundaries, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov said in an interview with the AzerTaj state news agency.
Azerbaijan's position in settlement of the conflict remains unchanged - Azerbaijan will never agree to make the issue of territorial integrity a topic of the debate, Mammadyarov said.

"We see no other way to resolve the conflict, but withdrawal of Armenian forces from the occupied Azerbaijani territories and repatriation of internally displaced persons," the minister said.


Azerbaijan is committed to peaceful resolution of the conflict and ready to continue to work with partner countries and international and regional organizations to mobilize efforts for a fair and consistent resolution of the conflict, he said.


Nevertheless successful completion of the peace process depends on Armenia's commitment to this process, its constructiveness as well as contribution of the international community, particularly the OSCE Minsk Group countries, the Azerbaijani foreign minister said.
