“Azerbaijan should demand compensation from Armenia for the looting in Karabakh and the surrounding regions. This compensation should be carried out in three directions: state, collective and individual. That is, Azerbaijan as a State, the people of Azerbaijan should demand collective compensation and the Refugees Citizens of Azerbaijan must demand compensation individually.”
These words Oku.AzInternational relations commentator in his statement. Only Hajiyeva saying.
According to him, state companies, ecological resources, cultural and historical heritage and civilian property have been looted, erased from the face of the earth, used and illegally exploited from our territories that have been under occupation for 30 years:
“The circles trying to carry out legal and political representation of Armenia in Azerbaijan and abroad make such propaganda that Azerbaijan cannot demand compensation. But this is not the case. I should point out that UN Resolution 2000 on the damage caused to Azerbaijan due to the occupation of Azerbaijan’s territories by Armenia. In the official report published in 2015, the damage is partially calculated, but this UN report covers only 7 years: 1993-2000, and the damage is They estimate only at 53.5 billion dollars. During the first 7 years of occupation, the damage has not yet been calculated. Since we liberated our lands from occupation in 2020, this amount is 3 times higher.
“There are issues such as the damage to the life and psychology of hundreds of our citizens, the right of children to live freely and happily, the right to education, the right of women to live safely, childhood and youth unlived and wasted, etc., so the law should take into account the economic equivalent of these points and compensate them. It is clear that Armenia does not have the resources to pay compensation, but Armenia has state properties (energy supply, mining. , etc.) that can be valued as compensation,” added the expert.
economist-scientist Emin Garibli while Oku.AzHe said in his statement that preliminary calculations were made about the damage caused by Armenia to Azerbaijan, but there is no exact figure:
“That is, this figure was before the Second Karabakh War and has not been specifically determined. Now it is being monitored in this direction, the process is being evaluated and these damages are worth billions of dollars. Even “It is estimated at a trillion dollars. But the exact calculation has not yet been completed. Many experts even estimate that the cost of this damage may exceed $1 trillion. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate this damage and receive compensation.”
“At least our future generations and the world community should know how the Armenians plundered our territories. Because there are many points here. Our natural resources were plundered, the ecology was damaged and the population suffered. All this must be calculated and concretized. A probably should come out amount, this calculation will be made and announced to the public soon,” the economist added.
