Foreign Minister of Pakistan Shah Mahmood Qurashi while speaking at OIC contact group meeting at sideline of UNGA said that world must put pressure on Armenia to vacate Azerbaijani areas and stop aggression over Azerbaijani nation.
He was of the view that Armenian aggression in Nagorno-Karabakh is hampering regional peace and since 1994 over 1 million had been displaced due to Armenian aggression.
He stated that Pakistan stands (stood) with Azerbaijan and believe that global peace cannot be achieved unless aggressors like Armenia are not snubbed by world powers.
