YEREVAN. – Azerbaijan attempts to delude the international community at the United Nations (UN). In this way, the Azerbaijani authorities wish to establish foundations toward moving the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process to other platforms and to evade their commitments toward the resolution of the matter.    

But such modus operandi rather “harms,” instead of benefiting, official Baku. Everytime when Azerbaijan makes statements on the Karabakh issue at the UN, it enables the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) MFA to present its positions with a reply letter.

And recently, Armenia’s representative at the UN disseminated NKR MFA’s response to the letters by the Azerbaijan’s representative to the UN, and which were aboiut the NKR presidential elections held on July 19. The NKR MFA’s statement stresses that “the formation of state agencies based on free and transparent expression of will has become an integral part of the Republic’s political culture,” the international observers’ high rating given to these elections is presented, and it is demonstrated that the Azerbaijani side’s arguments submitted to the UN devoid any logic.

So, the more Azerbaijan tries to use the UN platform to spread anti-Armenian propaganda, the documents expressing NKR’s official positions will be circulated that much more at the United Nations.
