I have witnessed the crimes against humanity, properties and environment in the liberated territories as well as areas outside of the conflict zone, Malaysian Ambassador to Azerbaijan Dato’ Yubazlan Yusof said, Trend reports.
Yubazlan made the remarks at a press conference dedicated to the results of the visits to Azerbaijan’s Aghdam and Ganja by the delegation of the Contact Group of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
"As a resident Ambassador in Baku, I have visited other parts of the liberated territories as well as areas outside of the conflict zone and witnessed the crimes against humanity, properties and environment. Most of all, I am quite sad to see how the places of worship were treated not just in Aghdam but also in Zangilan, Jabrayil and Fuzuli. Malaysia has always given our full support and solidarity with Azerbaijan when it comes to Nagorno-Karabakh issues and this can be seen through our active participation through OIC Contact Group, NAM and also UN," the ambassador said.
"We welcome the peace agreement which was signed on 9 November 2020 and hope that all of the parties to allow for the peace to sustain. I really hope that the OIC would take these issues seriously and actively participate in the peace building process. Peace building process is not only about the re-development of the liberated regions but to give moral support and provide the understanding to the almost 1 million IDPs in Azerbaijan. I pray and hope that the IDPs are able to return to their homes," the ambassador said.
