Aliyev: The only way for peace is for Armenia to accept all our conditions

The President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said: Armenia must understand that the only way to improve the situation is to accept all the terms of Baku and forget its territorial claims.

Aliyev stated that “Armenia and its supporters thought that no one would deal with them”, and said: “They were completely wrong and they are still wrong”.

Armenia and Azerbaijan have a long-term conflict over the region of Nagorno-Karabakh. In September 2023, the Republic of Azerbaijan took control of this region; A region where most of the residents are of Armenian origin. As a result of this attack, almost all local residents fled to Armenia.

At the time of that attack, Baku announced the beginning of the “anti-terrorism” operation in Karabakh and claimed that Armenia is strengthening its military in this region and has carried out “sabotage” operations against the forces of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Yerevan denied these accusations and claimed that Baku intended to purge Armenians from Karabakh.

Finally, the Ministry of Defense of Russia said in a statement that with the mediation of the command of the Russian peacekeeping forces, an agreement was reached between Baku and the representatives of Nagorno-Karabakh on the complete cessation of hostilities. However, as a result of the attack by the forces of the Republic of Azerbaijan, at least 100,000 of its 120,000 Armenian residents went to Armenia.

According to “Trend” news site, Aliyev said: Armenia is looking for a new “owner” and is looking for a shelter in the arms of others. Yerevan must understand that the only way is to accept all the conditions of Azerbaijan and abandon the territorial claims against Azerbaijan. =”fa fa-circle”/> International West Asia
