    ALIYEV CONTINUES TO REVISE HISTORY

    Azeri president Ilham Aliyev

    BAKU (APA)-Azeri President Ilham Aliyev, in remarks Tuesday to the
    World Azerbaijani Congress, claimed that Yerevan and Zangezur were
    Azeri lands that were "granted" to Armenia, adding that Azerbaijan
    would spare no effort, including military, to ensure what he called
    its territorial integrity.

    "Armenia knows very well that they are guests in Nagorno-Karabakh. The
    Armenian state was established in historical Azerbaijani land -
    Yerevan and Zangazur. The Turkic world was geographically separated,
    as Zangazur was given to Armenia," said Aliyev while pledging to
    continue the talks.

    Aliyev added that ensuring Azerbaijan's territorial integrity is one
    of the major issues facing the country.

    In his speech he noted that international organizations had passed
    resolutions on the Karabakh problem, which remained unfulfilled
    because of what he described as Armenia's "unconstructive position".

    "Yerevan has to understand that Azerbaijan's potential cannot be
    compared with Armenia's capability. Azerbaijan's economic potential is
    ten times greater than Armenia's economic potential. Armenia has no
    power to compete with Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan's military expenditure
    is 50 percent more than Armenia's budget," the president said,
    echoing remarks made in his speech at a military parade on June 26,
    Armed Forces Day.
