Creating an Armenian state in the territory of Azerbaijan is ridiculous and Azerbaijan will not allow it, the Vice Speaker of Milli Majlis [Azerbaijani Parliament], Head of the Azerbaijani delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, Ziyafet Askerov, briefed the media, Trend reports.
NATO brings together 26 countries and most of them recognize the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. Despite that NATO Secretary, General Yap De Khup Scheffer, who did not participate in the 52nd autumn session but contributed via telephone conference from Brussels. He and representatives of other countries explicitly stated in their speeches that changing the borders would be disastrous. If an ethnical society announces its independency in the territory of another country, what would this cause? The Armenians residing in Nagorno-Karabakh insist that they exercise the right to define their destiny through the support from Armenia. But Armenians have already defined their destiny and created their state. Creating an Armenian state in the territory of Azerbaijan is totally unacceptable, Askerov underlined.
