Armenian government paralyzes Karabakh talks - Hikmet Hajiyev
Baku / 07.03.19 / Turan: An interview by Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on March 4 to the Euractiv website contradicts the essence and format of the negotiations in the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group, stated the article by the head of the foreign policy department of the presidential administration Hikmet Hajiyev, published on the same site.
Armenian Prime Minister "began to put forward unrealistic claims to bring to the talks the separatist regime created in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan," writes Hajiyev.
According to him, with such thinking, the Armenian side deliberately slows down and paralyzes the entire process of negotiations.
"The Prime Minister of Armenia, claiming that he cannot speak on behalf of the Armenians living in Karabakh, cannot answer a very simple question: What are the Armenian armed forces doing in the sovereign territories of Azerbaijan?"
"The government of Armenia, juggling with words, cannot avoid this inevitable responsibility," Hikmet Hajiyev notes. -02D-
