Comments by Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov to OSCE MG co-chairs statement on September 26, 2015
Regarding the statement by the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs on September 26, 2015 Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov told to AZERTAG that establishment of mechanism on investigation of incidents could only be considered when it wouldn’t serve to maintain the current status quo, as the presidents of co-chairs countries called unacceptable, and justify the occupation.
It is essential to establish the mechanism and plan on withdrawal of military forces of Armenia from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. The first and foremost reason for the mentioned “incidents” is occupation of territories of Azerbaijan by Armenia and military presence of Armenia in those occupied territories.
