Foreign Ministry: Military exercises in the occupied territories is a provocation Armenia
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry regarded conducting military exercises by Armenia in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan as a provocation. It serves to preserve the status quo and the escalation of tensions in the region, said Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesman Hikmet Hajiyev.
According to him, these exercises are to demonstrate the threat of force. An integral part of these provocations is Armenia's intention to hold illegal "parliamentary elections" in the secessionist entity in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. Instead of beginning work on many peace agreements Armenia undermines the negotiation process.
To resolve the conflict and restore peace and stability in the region primarily Armenian occupying forces must be withdraw from Azerbaijani territories, stressed Hajiyev.—06D--
