Alizade: Actually world community does not recognize Azerbaijan's territorial integrity

PanARMENIAN.Net - "In the Nagorno Karabakh issue we appeal to the rule of law of the international law. We announce that the whole world has recognized Karabakh as a territory of the Azerbaijani Republic. But it's not so. Only by word of mouth the world community states that it recognizes Karabakh as a territory of Azerbaijan, simultaneously refusing to recognize as aggressor the country, which has occupied Karabakh and avoiding to use sanctions against that country supposed by international laws," Azeri political scientist Zardusht Alizade stated. He says in order to achieve respect of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized rights it is necessary for the authorities of the country to respect the internationally recognized rights of its citizens. "If our authorities do not do that and violate civil rights of Azeri people, naturally the whole world considers it possible to violate the rights of Azeri nation, including in the issue of territorial integrity," Alizade underlined adding that only democratic and reach countries have the priority to respect Azerbaijan's lawful rights and the opportunity to appeal to the rule of law.



"Authorities in our country violate the rights of people, which are fixed in the UN Regulations. Authorities violate the right of people to elect the government, since power in our country is usurped. Rights to hold meetings, free expression, economic activity are being violated every day. Everything and everywhere is monopolized, authorities steal and rob everything. Does such a country and nation deserve respect? No. That's why nobody respects us and recognizes our right to territorial integrity," the political scientists said, Baku based "Zerkalo" newspaper reports.
