Aliyev is displeased with UN, praises Russia’s role in Karabakh conflict settlement

PanARMENIAN.Net - Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said that the UN Security Council adopted four resolutions on Nagorno Karabakh, but none of them has been implemented.

In an interview with Rossiya-24 TV channel, Aliyev said: “When we see that implementation of the UN Security Council’s resolutions on Libya starts in several hours after their adoption, while resolutions on Nagorno Karabakh are not implemented for 17-18 years, naturally, we wonder why. What is the reason behind such promptness in one case and such passivity in our case?”

According to Aliyev, Azerbaijan expects more active participation of mediators, first of all, of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen and Russia, as a regional country with consideration of the active role that Russia played recently.

“Unfortunately, the conflict remains unsettled for many years, and, hopefully, we will reach a progress soon. Azerbaijan praises the mediatory role of Russia and personally President Dmitry Medvedev, who exerts huge efforts to assist the countries in reaching settlement. Several trilateral meetings were held at his initiative, they are of great importance and have positive effect,” concluded Aliyev.
