Yerevan's pullout from occupied Azeri territories would help a return
to good neighborly relations with Armenia, Azeri President Ilham
Aliyev said.
"We don't need anything extraordinary. We only want our land to be
freed from occupation and Armenian troops to leave, after which we
could live like good neighbors," Aliyev told a Turkish delegation
attending the 2nd world congress of Azeris in Baku.
"If the Armenian leadership drops its claims against Turkey and
attempts to get the genocide of Armenians recognized, Armenian-Turkish
relations would return to normal, as well," he said, "We live in this
region, we are neighbors and we are bound to live on together, but on
condition that separatism would be done away with, the aftermath of the
ethnic purges cleared, Azeri citizens would return to their historical
homeland and an end would be put to all territorial claims," he said.
