“This action of Armenia is just provocation following the presidents’ Paris meeting”
Baku. Rufet Ahmadzadeh – APA. “In 1993, there were no Armenians in Zangilan, where Armenia has now opened a kindergarten”, said Hikmet Hajiyev, acting spokesman for the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry, APAreports. He said this action of Armenia is just provocation following the presidents’ meeting which took place in Paris on October 27, 1993.
“No Armenians had ever lived in Zangilan, which was invaded by the Armenian Armed Forces on 29 October 1993. This type of attempts proves that Armenia pursues a policy of annexing Azerbaijan’s occupied territories”, he said.
The spokesman stated that such actions Armenia takes in Azerbaijan’s occupied territories are in direct contrast with the 1949 Geneva Convention and its additional protocols: “The UN Security Council’s resolution No 884 on 11 November 1993 condemns the invasion of Azerbaijan’s Horadiz village and Zangilan District and demands an immediate, complete, and unconditional withdrawal of the occupying forces from those territories’.
Note that, Armenian media had reported of the opening of a kindergarten in the occupied district of Zangilan.
