“The European Union-Armenia-USA joint conference to be held on April 5, of course, does not promise anything good for the future of the region, it is a direct continuation of long-standing double standards and biased approaches. In general, at a time when all processes are moving towards peace, such an unpleasant intention of the EU and the USA is certainly not understandable. In fact, they are hindering the peace process in the region with the manner they are showing. Sattar Mohbaliyev, chairman of the Azerbaijan Trade Unions Confederation (AHIK), member of the Milli Majlis, expressed these views to the mass media. “If the intentions of the European Union and the United States are pure in this matter, it would be better if they support the fair peace process that Azerbaijan has put forward for the first time, as well as encourage Armenia to do so. But, unfortunately, such disruptive and divisive steps only cause tension and prevent the normalization of relations. It is also interesting that the states and organizations, which were mostly remembered for their silence during the 30-year-long conflict and blamed everything on the Minsk Group, are coming together today. If you were worried about this issue as much as you are today, why didn’t you do something for 30 years with all the possibilities at hand, as well as 4 resolutions of the UN Security Council demanding the immediate, complete and unconditional withdrawal of the occupying forces of Armenia from the territory of Azerbaijan?! How “fair” you are in this case is more clear from this angle,” said the chairman of the ATUC. If you were as concerned about this issue as you are today, why did you not do anything for 30 years with all possible means in your hands, as well as 4 UN Security Council resolutions demanding immediate, complete and unconditional withdrawal of Armenian occupying forces from the territory of Azerbaijan?! It is more obvious from this angle how “fair” you are in this case,” said the chairman of the ATUC.
