Italian parliament to mull resolution on South Caucasus
A draft resolution on the situation in the South Caucasus region
will be discussed in the Italian parliament soon, an Azerbaijani
lawmaker has said.
Fuad Muradov said the document is expected to cover issues of
tremendous importance. He noted that about a year ago the Bundestag
(German parliament) passed an absolutely unbiased resolution on the
situation in the volatile region. For the first time, a parliament
of a European country condemned and demanded ending Armenia’s
policy of occupation against Azerbaijan.
"Work is underway with the Italian parliament to that end," the MP
said, adding that the resolution will include points on the
Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict.
Azerbaijan and Armenia fought a lengthy war that ended with the
signing of a cease-fire in 1994, but Armenia continues to occupy
Upper Garabagh and seven other Azerbaijani districts in defiance of
international law. Peace talks have not yet resulted in resolving
the conflict.*
