An Azerbaijani member of parliament proposed to intensify relations with the parliaments of member countries of the OSCE Minsk Group.
"If Armenia does not face pressure, it will be impossible to return the occupied lands. To settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict within the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, the country's parliament should further expand the relations with the parliaments of member countries of OSCE Minsk Group. In this case, we can achieve exert pressure on Armenia, as on the aggressor country," MP and Chairman of Ana Vatan Party, Fazail Agamali said at the parliamentary meeting on Oct. 27.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
