On May 10, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian delivered a speech on the sidelines of Sharm el-Sheikh-hosted Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) ministerial meeting.

As the Foreign Minister stressed during his speech, Yerevan, in the capacity of NAM observer, shares the values of the movement.

Dwelling on Karabakh conflict settlement, the official specifically pointed out Azeri military rhetoric, noting that the official Baku’s statements run counter to the spirit of OSCE MG-mediated negotiations. “Azeri approach not only threatens the peace process and shaky situation in conflict zone, but also contradicts the main principles of NAM. Azerbaijan, though a member of NAM for only a year, violated the principles of Bandung, while promoting discrimination and ethnic hatred. This is the only explanation to the recent statement of Azeri leadership announcing Armenians worldwide as Azerbaijan’s enemy No 1,” the Foreign Minister concluded.
