Belgian MP: “Armenia must withdraw from Nagorno-Karabakh”

Answering the questions from The European Azerbaijan Society on Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, MP David GEERTS, Member of the Belgian Federal Parliament stated that no one can deny the clear message send out by the international community through the United Nations Security Council Resolutions on the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan in 1993, APA reports.

“It would be better if Armenian armed forces withdraw from the occupied Azerbaijani territories. So we could now rapidly and really achieve the ending of the occupation of Nagorno-Karabakh and make progress in peace process.

When we talk about the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, a crucial element that needs to be taken into account is the unconditional return of the Internally Displaced People to their homelands. In parallel, an important investment should be done to guarantee better life conditions of those people in the respective regions upon their return.

There is no doubt that the increased mutual contacts between Azerbaijan and Europe offers an unique opportunity to Azerbaijan and its people to put the problems of territorial integrity high on the political agenda via also an economic cooperation.

Indeed, the Minsk Group’s negotiations are far from successful. I believe that the different members of the Minsk Group have a too limited global vision on the real purpose of these negotiations,” he said. /APA/
