/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Armenia can never compete with Azerbaijan," Azeri
President I. Aliyev stated at the II World Azerbaijanis Congress
March 16. In his words, Azerbaijan is increasing its military power
and its military budget makes $600 million this year. "I set a task of
making Azerbaijan's military budget equal to all of Armenia's budget
in the near future." "Armenia can never compete with us. The earlier
Armenian leaders understand it, the better for them," Aliyev said.
Aliyev said that Azerbaijan will have to reconsider its
participation in the peace talks over the Nagorno Karabakh
settlement if it sees "Armenia breaks the negotiation process and
is not constructive." "The peace talks have been held for 12 years,
but they did not bear fruit. We abide by the peace process, however
when we encounter Armenia's not constructive stance, our patience
expires. If Azerbaijan sees that the peace process is an imitation,
it will refuse from participation in it," Aliyev said. In his words,
Azerbaijan will not admit tearing away Nagorno Karabakh either in
10 or 100 years. "There will be no peace accord without solving
the question of return of displaced persons to their native lands,"
the Azeri President underscored, Trend reports.
