Araz Azimov 'The Armenian president should be attentive in his
statements on the Karabakh conflict because Azerbaijan has repeatedly
voiced its proposals.
Our initiatives are contained in Madrid principles', said Araz Azimov,
deputy foreign minister of Azerbaijan and personal representative of
the president on the Karabakh conflict settlement.
He said it is now Armenia's turn to declare its position on the
updated Madrid principles.
'The Armenian president should seriously consider these opportunities
if it supports the people who want to live in peace and durable
cooperation with Azerbaijanis. We are short of time. I think
the Armenian side uses inexpedient ways to gain time but I do not
think it will cope. On the one hand, it has to observe the norms of
international law and on the other hand use and appreciate Azerbaijan's
striving for peace and compromise.
If it doesn't, Azerbaijan will have to restore its territorial
integrity. At the same time, Azerbaijan will certainly ensure security
of its Armenian citizens. This is an extremely serious question. No
one should have time or reasons to make groundless statements',
Araz Azimov said.
At the meeting with representatives of the Armenian community of
Syria, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said Armenia is not ready
for unilateral concessions and it expects the Azerbaijani side to
make proposals in the Karabakh issue.
