RA MFA: Azerbaijan attempted to misinform UN member states

PanARMENIAN.Net - "I hope Azerbaijan got the message from the international community. Taking the lead of the co-chairs, a majority of member states repelled the one-sided approach," said Armenia's Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian when commenting on the vote on Azerbaijan's resolution in the UN General Assembly.



Minister Oskanian characterized the resolution as hypocritical. "On the one hand, in an effort to misinform member states, the resolution included a paragraph that supports the OSCE Minsk Process. On the other hand, Azerbaijan blatantly ignored the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs position. The co-chair countries had made clear they would not support the resolution and in fact voted against the resolution."



"Now we wonder what Azerbaijan's next move will be," he said. "We question whether this resolution was intended to derail the negotiating process or whether they got the clear message and will return to the negotiating table to work on a negotiated, compromise lasting solution," the Minister said, the RA MFA press office reported.
