Ilham Aliev is an utter fool. Evidence thereof is the resolution submitted to the U.N. General Assembly, said Rafik Petrosyan, a member of the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA). In a debate with Secretary of the Heritage Party Larisa Alaverdyan he said that “the resolution is not even worth the paper it is typed on.” Even if it is approved, “it is not worth a dime.”

“Quite another matter if the resolution were submitted and approved by the U.S. Security Council. However, we know that issues are settled by consensus there, and Russia and France are against it. I do not think the resolution will reach the Security Council, as necessary preventive steps are being made,” Petrosyan said. Since resolutions approved by the U.N. General Assembly do not have any legal force, they should be ignored.

In her turn, Mrs. Alaverdyan pointed out that the U.N. is a political organization and at least political consequences of its decisions must not be underestimated. “That is, a political organization’s decisions must have political consequences to be of importance for you? I wonder if a political organization’s decisions do not have political force for a political party,” asked Alaverdyan. “It is strange that a political force should consider itself a legal entity and expect a document having a legal force to be approved,” she said. According to Alaverdyan, a political force’s task is to implement a policy preventing any “threatening wordings” in documents having legal force.

On September 7, the U.N. General Assembly is to consider a draft resolution on situation in Azerbaijan’s occupied territories.
