Azerbaijani MFA comments on Hawaii State
The U.S. foreign policy is determined by the federal government. The U.S. supports the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Azerbaijan within its internationally recognized border.

Hikmat Hajiyev, spokesman for the Azerbaijani foreign ministry made the remarks while commenting on Hawaii State’s recognizing the independence of so-called "NKR".

“Though the radical Armenian lobby in the U.S. was trying to put this issue on the agenda of the Hawaii State Senate March 10, 2016, it failed. Thus, the Hawaii State Senate rejected two anti-Azerbaijani resolutions. The leadership of the Hawaii State Senate issued a formal statement on March 11, expressing support for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan in accordance with U.S. policy. The leadership also said that the Hawaii State Senate will not accept these resolutions,” he added.

Hajiyev said that while continuing the provocative and insignificant actions, Armenia and the Armenian lobby in the U.S. after this failure addressed the House of Representatives of the local legislative body of the State of Hawaii.

"All this proves that Armenia`s participation in the negotiation process on Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement is an imitation and aims at deceiving the international community,” he said. “Armenia’s real purpose is the annexation of Azerbaijani territories."
