he certain stagnation at the talks on Karabakh and the general status
quo in the conflict must be removed and to this end Armenian troops
must be withdrawn from the territory of Azerbaijan, Azeri President
Ilham Aliyev said on Wednesday.
"A change in the status quo implies the withdrawal of Armenian
occupation troops from captured lands. Naturally as occupation troops
are withdrawn from these lands positive tendencies will also further
strengthen the negotiating process and the issue will be settled in a
short time," Aliyev said at an expanded Cabinet session reviewing the
country's social and economic development in the first quarter of 2012.
Azerbaijan also continues to pay much attention to its military
development. "Along with all political and diplomatic efforts we are
building up our military might, of course, and have formed a strong
army," Aliyev said.
"A strong army also considerably strengthens our negotiating position,"
the president said. He said that this factor and also the growing
economic and political capabilities of Azerbaijan make the fair
settlement of the Karabakh problem inevitable.
