Azerbaijan joins NAM to lobby for anti-Armenian resolutions adoption by UN

PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of European Integration NGO Karen Bekaryan said Azerbaijan has joined the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) to lobby for anti-Armenian resolutions adoption by the UN General Assembly.

“Earlier, members of the Organization of the Islamic Conference were supporting Azerbaijan in the UN, while NAM states will also do so after Azerbaijan’s joining it,” Bekaryan told a press conference in Yerevan.

Nevertheless, the expert sees also positive aspects in the current situation. “Earlier, the West considered the region as a whole; now approaches to the South Caucasus countries differ, including foreign policy priorities,” Bekaryan said.

He expressed strong belief that Baku’s membership in the Non-Aligned Movement does not reflect the will of Azerbaijani people.
