(MENAFN- AzerNews) By Akbar Hasanov, Day.az
To begin with, I will present information that was confirmed by
the Armenian media and the Garabagh separatists. So, with the
mediation and accompaniment of the ICRC, 10 patients of the
"Republican Medical Center" CJSC of the so-called "Ministry of
Health of Artsakh", together with their escorts, were taken to
specialized medical centers in Armenia on August 12 to receive
emergency specialized medical care.
It was also indicated that during the day it is planned to
return 9 patients to the Garabagh economic region of Azerbaijan,
along with accompanying persons, who were sent to Armenia for
treatment within the framework of the state order, in ICRC vehicles
during the day. That is, the Armenian side recognizes that there is
no 'blockade' of the Garabagh economic region of Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan also confirms that the passage through the Lachin
border checkpoint is open. It is indicated that in the direction of
Khankendi-Gorus, a total of 9 vehicles belonging to the ICRC, 30
people (of which 3 members of the ICRC, 9 drivers, 10 patients, 7
accompanying persons, 1 medical worker) passed through the
checkpoint.
Against this background, we see that Armenia applied to the UN
with a request to urgently convene a meeting of the Security
Council "in connection with the so-called blockade of the Lachin
corridor by Azerbaijan and the deterioration as a result of the
humanitarian situation". The statement was published on the UN page
at X (Twitter). I consider it important to acquaint readers with
the scale of the recorded cynicism and stupidity of official
Yerevan.
The Armenian government asks for the intervention of the UN
Security Council, as the main body responsible for maintaining
international peace and security, "to prevent massive atrocities,
including war crimes, ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity and
genocide".
The first thing that comes to mind in this regard is that for
decades Armenia has calmly ignored the adopted resolutions of the
Security Council and the UN General Assembly. That is, to appeal to
an international organization, whose resolutions the RA itself does
not comply with, is some kind of completely amazing "trick" even
for the Armenian side. Especially since another event happened
today.
The Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan reported on the shelling
of the positions of the Azerbaijani army by the Armed Forces of
Armenia on the border by Armenian illegal armed groups (IAF) in the
zone of temporary deployment of Russian peacekeepers in the
Garabagh region of Azerbaijan. So these same Armenian illegal armed
formations should have been disbanded precisely in accordance with
the resolutions of the Security Council and the UN General
Assembly.
This, as we see, did not happen. And the responsibility for what
happened lies with the official Yerevan, which, instead of
implementing the UN resolutions already adopted more than two
decades ago, is itself scribbling slander in the UN Security
Council. Moreover, it does not cite arguments, but myths that have
been repeatedly refuted even by Armenian bloggers close to RA Prime
Minister Nikol Pashinyan.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia, in
fact, exposes Pashinyan in a truly idiotic way. He has repeatedly
recognized the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, including the
Karabakh economic region and enclaves? Recognized. Accordingly,
what the RA MFA is doing now is an attempt to interfere in the
internal affairs of our country. And they are also trying to
involve the UN Security Council in this adventure.
In fact, it was an attempt to get the UN Security Council to
adopt a resolution that would mean disrespect for the territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan. In Yerevan, they understand that this is
simply impossible, because it will be the opening of the notorious
"Pandora's box", which will lead to a "parade of separatists"
everywhere and everywhere?! If they do not understand, then I will
remind you of the event that just happened.
The US, UK, France, Albania, Japan and Malta issued a joint
statement on the 15th anniversary of Russia's invasion of Georgia.
In this document, they called on Russia to return South Ossetia and
Abkhazia under the control of official Tbilisi. Why was this
resolution adopted? Because there is a recognition of the
territorial integrity of Georgia.
But the just position of official Baku is based exactly on this
- on the principle of the territorial integrity of states. Going
contrary to which, the UN Security Council will put in a ridiculous
light its support for Ukraine in the war that Russia imposed on it.
It is impossible to maintain the territorial integrity of Ukraine,
condemning the occupation of its territories by the Russian
Federation, while following the lead of official Yerevan, which is
pushing the UN Security Council to openly support the Karabakh
separatists! But, we have already seen more than once that the
voice of reason and the actions of the Armenian leadership are two
non-intersecting lines.
