Armenian MPs admit occupation of Azeri lands

Armenian MPs have admitted that Armenia has occupied 8% of Azerbaijan’s territory, saying, however, that Upper Garabagh is not a part of Azerbaijan. This was announced Friday by four Azeri MPs who attended the "Caucasus and Europe" seminar organized by British organization "Links" in London on March 15-17.

According to the chairman of the permanent commission on international relations and inter-parliamentary contacts Samad Seyidov, Armenian MPs admitted the fact of occupation of Azeri territories in the House of Lords, House of Commons and at a meeting with COE representatives. Mr. Seyidov added that British parliamentarians and COE officials support Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.*
