Special representative of Armenia to UN:

The main discussions in UN General Assembly ended on 27 September in New York. When Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Elmar Mammadyarov delivered a speech, the discussion between the delegations of Armenia and Azerbaijan started.

As press-service of Armenia's Foreign Ministry reported, Ambassador Karen Nazaryan has stated in his speech that Mammadyarov's statements in address to Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh are the result of his imagination, who still thinks that the propaganda of cold war and anti-Armenian statements released in the UN can serve as useful tools to strengthen the positions of his country in the negotiations being mediated by the OSCE Minsk Group.

Denying Armenia's "aggression", the demands to withdraw Armenian armed forces, and statements on one million refugees, Ambassador Nazaryan has underlined that the minister's accusations and facts are fake and groundless, which harm the negotiations and activities done by the international organizations. Ambassador Nazaryan has stated those statements delay those constructive steps that the people of NK need. He also added that Azerbaijan forced armed conflict against NK. Finally he said that if Azerbaijan misleads its people making fake statements, it doesn't necessarily mean that the same will happen with the international community.

Thai-Cambodia border clashes enter fourth day

Renewed fighting between Thailand and Cambodia has entered its fourth day, with both sides accusing one another of violating international law, as they await a promised phone call from United States President Donald Trump. Cambodia’s Ministry of Defence accused Thailand’s military of carrying out numerous attacks within the country in the early hours of Thursday morning, including deploying tanks and artillery to strike targets in the country’s Pursat, Banteay Meanchey, and Oddar Meanchey provinces. In one such attack, Cambodia accused Thai soldiers of violating international humanitarian law by firing on civilians in Prey Chan village in Banteay Meanchey province. In another, it accused Thai forces of shelling “into Khnar Temple area”, and said Thai forces had also “fired artillery and support fire into the O’Smach area”. “Cambodia urges that Thailand immediately stop all hostile activities and withdraw its forces from Cambodia’s territorial integrity, and avoid acts of aggression that threaten peace and stability in the region,” the Defence Ministry said. Clashes took place on Wednesday at more than a dozen locations along the contested colonial-era demarcated 817-kilometre (508-mile) Thai-Cambodian border, with some of the most intense fighting being reported since a five-day battle in July, which saw dozens killed on both sides. Cambodia’s Ministry of the Interior said homes, schools, roads, Buddhist pagodas and ancient temples had been damaged by “Thailand’s intensified shelling and F-16 air strikes targeting villages and civilian population centres up to 30km [18.6 miles] inside Cambodian territory”.
