The international community must put the adoption of sanctions against Armenia on the agenda, Azerbaijani Parliamentary Security and Defense Committee member Zahid Oruj told journalists. He commented on the recent murder of an Azerbaijani child in Agdam region, after the Armenian armed forces opened fire.
"How should we understood this if the entire world has united to take tough sanctions against Qaddafi? … But sanctions are not made against those who occupy the territory of another country and cause the deaths of tens of thousands of people?" Oruj said.
He added that the murder of the child should be a signal to the international community.
"Today, sanctions against Armenia should be included on the agenda. These losses will continue until sanctions are made," Oruj stressed.
"There were plans to deploy peacekeeping forces on the territory and conduct security measures. In fact, Armenia has concentrated forces in the occupied territories. Ensuring the ceasefire is a matter of the economic, political and military power of Azerbaijan. If Azerbaijan was weak on this issue, then the scale of our losses would have been greater," he said.
Andrzej Kasprzyk, who is carrying out an international mission in the region and is the head of the OSCE mission, should draw serious conclusions from this child's death, Oruj added.
"The processes in the region could become ungovernable at any time. That is the second phase of a military conflict that may launch any day," he said.
