President said that his country would open all its borders with
Armenia, if Armenia started to withdraw its occupant forces from the
Azerbaijani territory.
Azerbaijan's president said on Monday that his country would open all
its borders with Armenia, if Armenia accepted the revised Madrid
criteria and started to withdraw its occupant forces from the
Azerbaijani territory.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev appeared at a joint press
conference with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan following
a tete-a-tete meeting and talks between Turkish and Azerbaijani
delegations at his presidential Zagulba Palace.
Speaking at the conference, Aliyev said talks had been held for long
years for the solution of the Karabakh dispute between Azerbaijan
and Armenia.
Noting that Azerbaijan had been displaying efforts for a fair and
peaceful solution that was in accordance with international law,
Aliyev said his country approved the revised Madrid criteria on the
matter with only some minor exceptions and it expected Armenia to
act the same way.
"Armenia should express its stance on the matter," Aliyev said, noting
the country would either display a positive stance and parties would
get closer to a settlement, or it would respond negatively and the
negotiation process would be destroyed.
The Azerbaijani president said that his country would open its borders
with Armenia and peace and security measures would be taken in the
region, if Armenia stopped its invasion on the Azerbaijani territory.
Upon a question on whether the Azerbaijani natural gas would join the
Nabucco project, Aliyev said the Azerbaijani gas was a great source
for the pipelines in the region, adding his country could participate
in such project under the right conditions.
