BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 12. The Armenian diaspora
has influence in the resolutions adopted against Azerbaijan, MP
Fariz Ismailzade said at a roundtable discussion on "President
Ilham Aliyev's peace strategy is a guarantee of stability"
organized by the Media Development Agency, Trend reports.
He noted that Azerbaijan is the only country that has been able
to fully restore its territories, return tens of thousands of
people to their lands, and carry out infrastructure work there,
establish residential zones, build prosperous cities and villages,
and at the same time restore the social and economic life of those
zones.
According to him, as a result of the political activity and
practical steps taken by President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, the
establishment of peace in places — in cities, neighborhoods, and
villages —, the return of life there, the restoration of
infrastructure, the development of new transport hubs, and the
overall spiritual and social revival of those zones are
noteworthy.
"Currently, the process of forming a new political vision is
underway in Armenia, and various approaches are observed in this
direction. The current government is trying to present the country
as a state normalizing relations with its neighbors and pursuing a
policy in line with the peace agenda. However, there are also
political forces that approach this process from a different
position, and they are trying to influence this direction at
various levels.
At the same time, the Armenian diaspora also plays a certain
role in these discussions and the general political discourse.
Recently, resolutions adopted in some European countries have also
come to the agenda in parallel with this process, and various
political influences, including the direct influence of the
Armenian diaspora, are observed here.
The geography of the Caucasus is of great strategic importance
in terms of both rich energy and mineral resources. For this
reason, various actors are trying to maintain their influence on
transport and communication lines and economic routes in the
region. In this context, the Zangezur corridor and transit projects
in the region in general are of particular importance.
Azerbaijan plays an important role as a reliable partner against
the backdrop of these processes. The country acts as a state that
maintains stability in the face of international conflicts and
global instability, is self-confident, and pursues a foreign policy
based on national interests. At the same time, Azerbaijan puts
forward new initiatives, especially important ideas related to
green energy, transport corridors, and regional cooperation
projects. At a time when general instability in the world is
increasing, Azerbaijan maintains its position stably and reliably
and actively participates in strategic projects," the MP added.
