Ukrainian MP: Imposing sanctions may force Armenia to return occupied Azerbaijani lands (Trend)
Ukraine fully supports the sovereignty and inviolability of the Republic of Azerbaijan within the internationally recognized borders, Ukrainian MP Volodymyr Kreydenko told Trend on Sept. 28.
The MP made the remarks following Armenia's recent military attack on Azerbaijan.
Kreydenko stressed that almost 30 years have passed since the adoption of four UN Security Council’s resolutions, which, however, are not being fulfilled.
While commenting on the possibility of imposing international sanctions against Armenia, Kreydenko expressed support for this idea.
"Imposing of sanctions can force Armenia to comply with international law and return the occupied lands to Azerbaijan," the MP said. "There mustn't be any territorial claims in the modern world. We do not live in the Middle Ages."
"Today, there are completely different values and principles in the world, however, unfortunately, some leaders of certain countries, who imagine themselves as "great emperors" have not yet understood this," he added.
