Ilham Aliyev receives Bogdan Klich Azerbaijani Defence Minister Safar
Abiyev has said that talks to resolve the conflict with Armenia have
produced no result, so Azerbaijan will have to liberate its land
by force.
He made these remarks during a meeting with Polish Defence Minister
Bogdan Klich in Baku on Wednesday.
Abiyev briefed Klich on the military and political situation in the
region and problems stemming from the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict
over Nagorno-Karabakh.
He said in the wake of the occupation of Azerbaijan's territories
by Armenia that more than one million people had been forced to
leave their homes. Abiyev said that the OSCE Minsk Group-mediated
negotiations to settle the dispute had yielded no result. "In this
case, Azerbaijan will have to resort to military action to liberate
its territories," he said.
The Polish ambassador to Azerbaijan, Krzysztof Krajewski, attended
the meeting.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev received the Polish delegation
on Wednesday.
He said the relationship between Azerbaijan and Poland was developing
successfully and described bilateral political ties as "high level".
He said that meetings of the two countries' leaders were "intensive"
and "fruitful" and said that both Azerbaijan and Poland were keen to
boost cooperation in various spheres.
The president expressed the hope that the Polish minister's current
trip to Azerbaijan would contribute to strengthening ties between
the two defence ministries.
For his part, Bogdan Klich said his visit to Azerbaijan was a
good chance to contribute to developing relations between the two
countries. The minister was sure that he would have "fruitful meetings"
in Baku during the visit.
