    President of Azerbaijan Ilkham Aliev called on authorities of Armenia
    to adopt a constructive stance at negotiations at the Nagorno-Karabakh
    regulation. Speaking at a meeting in Nakhchyvan today, Aliev called
    on Armenia "to finally accept" proposals of the Minsk group of the
    OSCE and "not to seek excuses for drawing out."

    According to Aliev, officials in Yerevan have been releasing
    "ridiculous" statements lately. He added, "Azerbaijan will never
    grand independence to Nagorno-Karabakh. Such statements of officials
    are absolute lies."

    Importance of Azerbaijan and Armenia for international community is
    different. Economy of Azerbaijan is 500% bigger than economy of Armenia
    and in the near future this difference will be tenfold. The overall
    budget of Azerbaijan is 500% bigger than the budget of Armenia and the
    military budget of Azerbaijan equals the overall budget of Armenia,
    says Aliev.

    Importance of Azerbaijan for the energy security of Europe has been
    growing permanently, which has been strengthening the military
    political position of the country, "So far, Azerbaijan has been
    taking into account the interests of Armenia, namely the readiness
    to grant autonomy to Nagorno-Karabakh. However, this may not be in
    the future." Aliev called on Yerevan to draw a "correct" conclusion
    and to adopt a constructive stance.

    Aliev concluded, "You should not refer to parliamentary elections
    and place yourself in a stupid position. The OSCE, European Union,
    Council of Europe, US, France etc definitely condemned conduction of
    the illegal referendum in Nagorno-Karabakh. The purposeful policy of
    Azerbaijan is bringing its frits and we will achieve a just solving
    of the problem."
