The Azerbaijani community of the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan has spread an appeal in connection with the "Independence Day", marked by an illegal criminal regime in the occupied Azerbaijani territories.
"According to the information spread in the Armenian media, on September 2, the illegal criminal regime under the pretext of "Independence Day" held provocative events again, which once again testify that Armenia and its criminal regime are not interested in peaceful settlement of the conflict [the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict] and do not miss any opportunity to disrupt the negotiations. The Azerbaijani community of the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan said that the fictitious "independence" obtained through the policy of ethnic cleansing and the blood of hundreds of thousands of Azerbaijanis expelled from Nagorno-Karabakh region and the occupied territories does not promise any future," Trend cited the statement as saying.
The Azerbaijani community of the Nagorno-Karabakh region stressed that the holding of "Independence Day" in a situation when international organizations and the world community condemns the Armenian aggression means that it is in a hopeless situation.
"Armenia lags behind other regional countries economically, politically due to its aggressive policy,” the Azerbaijani community said. “Moreover, while deceiving the Armenian community of Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia continues to use the latter for its insidious policy. The Armenian community must free itself from this deceitful and a false "matrix" and together with the Azerbaijani community, take a step to restore peace within the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan," the Azerbaijani community urged.
According to the appeal, the world community is well aware of Azerbaijan’s fair and constructive position in negotiations to resolve the conflict and the steps being taken by Armenia. "Armenia and in particular the criminal junta’s regime must assess the situation and draw conclusions, understand that they are responsible for rash steps. Armenia’s any step to 'consolidate' the results of the occupation is contrary to the international law and is useless. After the restoration of the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan and the return of hundreds thousands of Azerbaijanis, the peaceful coexistence of two communities may be discussed," the statement reads.
In conclusion, the Azerbaijani community urged the Armenian community to get rid of the control of the illegal criminal regime in which they live as soon as possible.
