Foreign Ministry: India 30 years has been silent on occupation of territory of AzerispoBay

“It is Armenia that violates the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan only restores its internationally recognized borders. Azerbaijan continues to strengthen the border protection system within its territorial integrity, and this process is carried out on the basis of cards available from each Party and defining the border line between Armenia and Azerbaijan. In recent months, differences between border issues arose between the parties, all of which were resolved through negotiations between the parties to the trilateral statement. ” This was told by the head of the press service of the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan Leila Abdullayev, commenting on the words of the official representative of the Foreign Ministry of India in connection with the latest events at the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.

Abdullaeva noted that the main reason for border problems is the illegal occupation of the territories of Azerbaijan Armenia until November 2020.

“It is very strange that the Foreign Ministry of India, which last 30 years did not call for the conclusion of Armenian occupying forces from the territory of Azerbaijan, now speaks about the discharge of troops. It is clear that this last statement was made without a thorough study of various aspects of the issue. Azerbaijan has always called and calls for sovereignty, territorial integrity and irregularities of its internationally recognized borders. We believe that mutual respect and strict adherence to these principles is the only way to resolve any dispute and establish good-neighborly relations in the full sense of the word.

As the current Chairman of the Non-Aligned Movement of Azerbaijan has determined the promotion of the principles of Bandung as one of the priorities of his chairmanship. These principles contribute to the development of justice and equality in international relations and ensure compliance with the norms and principles of international law. Any attempt to cause damage to Unity in the Non-Aligned Movement, “said Abdullayev.
