decision", said I.Aliyev.

participate and accept this injustice?", said the President.

table, envision liberation of all the occupied lands, while five of
seven regions around Nagorno Karabakh should be freed unconditionally
and Lachin and Kelbajar will be returned to Azerbaijan within a short
period of time after that.
The President noted that the world society supports Azerbaijan,
which was proven by the recent resolution of the UN General

continue to settle Lachin illegally", said the President.

believe this lie", said Aliyev.

front line.
The President said that Azerbaijan continues talks through they gave
no results within 14 years.

the talks can not be endless", said the President "The issue will be
clarified in the near future", said Aliyev and added that everything
will depend on whether Armenia's position will change or no.
"I do hope that international mediators and Armenia will realize that
the occupation policy has no future", said the President.
"We are called for a compromise, but what compromises should we
make? Accept occupation and recognize independence of Nagorno
Karabakh? Or some foreign politicians state that both Armenia and
Azerbaijan are to be blamed for the events. What is our fault? And
what is your fault? You have been driven away from your home. Our
state has changed and we do not intend to stand such a pressure. No
one can make us reject our principal position. The Karabakh conflict
should be settled in the framework of the territorial integrity of
Azerbaijan and I do believe that it will occur soon", said Aliyev
addressing to the internally displaced persons.

of human rights in Armenia help state about the policy of double
standards applied by the West in the region", said President of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev on Friday.
Speaking before the internally displaced persons in Fizuli, the
President added that the world society is aware that Armenia is not
right but closes eyes on it.
"The answer to this question is the fact that the world society has
closed eyes on the brutal violence applied by the Armenian authorities
against civilians", said Aliyev.
He noted that under Azerbaijan's demand PACE was obliged to confess
that not 8 but at least 28 people died in the result of the unrests
in Armenia.
"Azerbaijan is the most democratic country in the region but the whole
world society makes a stir the moment any provocation is initiated
here, the ambassadors of foreign countries start to make senseless
announcements and foreign press accuses Azerbaijan of non-democracy",
said the President.
"How long will we bear it? This proves that double standards are
applied to us and we reject accusations and will never accept them",
said Aliyev.
According to him, Azerbaijan should take a lesson from such an unjust
attitude.
"We observe the processes and we are obliged to state that Azerbaijan
is maltreated due to some reasons", said Aliyev. He noted that
Azerbaijan's unwillingness to be a toy in someone's hands also plays
a role in this issue. He announced that the fight for influence is
observed in the region but "Azerbaijan does not intend to fall under
one's influence and it will follow its own way".

it successfully", said President of Azerbaijan, according to
