Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev stated to a meeting with the heads
of the diplomatic missions of Azerbaijan active in foreign countries
on 14 August that Azerbaijan will never allow the establishment of
an Armenian state in its territory, Trend reports.
The President underlined that this position by Azerbaijan is unilateral
and cannot be a topic of discussions. "The issue can be resolved by
stages within the framework of the Paris process.
Azerbaijani territory should be liberated, refugees and internally
displaced people should be returned to their native lands, including
the Nagorno-Karabakh, and after it will be possible to discuss
the status of Nagorno-Karabakh. The status must be resolved within
the framework of international law and successful models exiting
worldwide," the Azerbaijani leader underscored.
Alyec said that during the peaceable talks the Armenian side uses
different fictions, which are too far from reality. "The reality
is based on the international rule of law. The international
law requires the rehabilitation of the territorial integrity of
Azerbaijan. Nagorno-Karabakh is an integral part of Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan was admitted to the UN with the Nagorno-Karabakh in its
composition. All countries, including the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing
countries, have recognized the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.
The President noted that the weak legal position of Armenians.
Recalling Armenia's demand on ensuring the right of Karabakh Armenians
for self-definition, the head of state underlined that by the same
way the Armenians residing in other countries also have a right for
self-definition: "Doesn't it mean that they should be granted with
a right of self-definition in the United States, France, Krasnodar
Province of Russia, or Georgia? How many states will they establish
throughout the world. It is impossible. Then why should Azerbaijan
be exclusion? Why should the second Armenian state be established in
the territory of Azerbaijan," the President inquired.
During the conference the head of state reminded of the existence of
Armenian lobby which directs its activities against Azerbaijan. The
diplomatic missions should be active in order to prevent false campaign
against, he stressed.
