I would like first of all to draw the attention of the General Assembly to the fact that the statement by the Armenian Ambassador has now clearly demonstrated that there is a major, acute problem between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and it should be treated properly by this House.
Another accusation was…
I would like to refer to your earlier statement, Mr. President, that all statements in favour of or objecting to the recommendation of the General Committee should be procedural, not substantive. The representative of Armenia is touching on the substance of the question.
My delegation is pleased to participate in the General Assembly deliberations on the report of the Economic and Social Council (A/59/3 and Add.1).

On behalf of the delegation of Azerbaijan, I would like to express our deep and sincere appreciation to you, Sir, for your kind words of sympathy and compassion.

The strengthening of the coordination of emergency humanitarian assistance of the United Nations is an issue that is of great importance from our national perspective as a matter of principle.
Experience during the past decade proves that the effective and timely distribution of emergency humanitar…
I would like briefly to summarize my earlier intervention. First, Armenia is to blame for the emergency humanitarian situation in Azerbaijan. It is because of Armenia’s aggression and policy of ethnic cleansing that hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians were brutally evicted from their homes. …
It had not been our intention to take the floor, but the groundless claims made by the Armenian representative have forced us to exercise our right of reply.
We regret — although we had somewhat expected — the inadequate reaction of Armenia to our statement on the agenda item under discussion. Anot…
I am sorry for taking the floor for the second time. I would just like to say that I have nothing to add to my previous statement and I would advise the Armenian representative to study the talking points to which I referred.
The only point to which I would like to react is that Azerbaijan was reco…
It comes as no surprise to us that the representative of Armenia reacted in such an inadequate manner to our statement on the issue in question. Of course, it would be much more appreciated if Armenia were to provide its audience with at least one relevant argument that would support its statement. …

Azerbaijan regrets that this rostrum has again been abused by Armenia in order to disseminate false information designed to gain justification for its immoral and repugnant State policy
of gross violations of international law, including the Charter of the United Nations.
Armenia continues to chal…
First of all, I would like to congratulate you, Sir, on your election to the presidency of the General Assembly at its fifty-eighth session and to express gratitude to Mr. Jan Kavan for his work as the President during the fifty-seventh session.
This year has been hard for the United Nations. The e…
Mr. President, before introducing the amendment of the delegation of Azerbaijan, allow me to touch on an important matter that has a direct bearing on the item before us. My country’s delegation profoundly regrets that the statement made in the plenary meeting on 22 October this year by the represen…
I shall be very brief. I should like to remind the representative of Armenia about the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s ministerial decision of March 1992 establishing his country and my country as main parties to the conflict. As far as the Armenian and Azerbaijani communities …
I would like to exercise my right of reply in response to the representative of Armenia.
