BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 13. A briefing for
representatives of the diplomatic corps accredited in Azerbaijan,
involving Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan
Jeyhun Bayramov and Assistant of the President of the Republic of
Azerbaijan, Head of Foreign Policy Affairs Department of the
Presidential Administration Hikmat Hajiyev, was held at the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan on September 13, Trend reports citing the ministry.
During the briefing, the participants were provided with
detailed information on urgent and adequate measures taken to
prevent military aggression caused by large-scale military
provocations of the Armenian armed forces in the direction of the
Kalbajar, Lachin and Dashkasan districts. Azerbaijan’s retaliatory
steps were limited and were targeted at legitimate military
objectives rather than the civilian population.
The briefing emphasized that the act of aggression of Armenia,
committed on the conditional state border, is one of the links in
the chain of Armenia’s recent military and political provocations.
Among these provocations are Armenia’s flagrant infringing upon the
trilateral statements signed by the Azerbaijani, Armenian, and
Russian leaders, the incomplete withdrawal of Armenian armed forces
from Azerbaijan’s territory, the continued landmine planting policy
of Armenia along Azerbaijani territories, preventing the opening of
transport communication, taking destructive steps against the peace
process, as well as ignoring Azerbaijan’s offerings to start
specific peace agreement negotiations, etc.
Furthermore, the briefing stressed that the military tensions in
the region are not in the interests of the Azerbaijani side in
conditions of returning internally displaced persons to the Aghali
village of the Zangilan district, as well as amidst reconstruction
activities carried out by Azerbaijan in the liberated
territories.
At the end of the briefing, the briefing participants delivered
speeches and answered relevant questions.
