ALIYEV: "AZERBAIJAN TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY HAS TO BE RESTORED"
Today, Azerbaijan
March 27 2006
Azerbaijan's position on Nagorno Karabakh conflict remains unchanged
-territorial integrity of the state has to be restored.
The president of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev said at the flag handling
ceremony during an opening of a museum and monument of Heydar Aliyev
at the Ministry of National Security Academy, Trend reports.
Azerbaijan still follows the strategy of peaceful negotiations,
but unfortunately, they do not yield any results.
"In that case we have to introduce changes into our policies,"
Aliyev said.
"Armenia disrupted the February meetings in France, showing a lack
of constructivism. Their desire to drag out the negotiating process
is obvious. However, the peace process' potential has not yet been
completely exhausted," he said.
"There is an impression of prolonging time and imitating the
negotiations. Armenia should know that we are capable to solve the
problem militarily," he said.
Azerbaijan annually expands state budget expenditures on defense and
they will continue to get increased, the president stated.
"This is country's sovereign right to increase defense expenditures.
It is a natural process for a country engaged in a military conflict
and with a violated sovereignty," he concluded.
