Azerbaijan will provide all the necessary conditions for Armenians
to live in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azeri President Ilham Aliyev said.
"Azerbaijan, as a multiethnic state, will surely provide conditions for
and will help Armenians living there, and they will enjoy all rights
as citizens of the Azerbaijani state in the future," Aliyev said in
an interview with Turkish television channel TRT, whose transcript
was published in the official Azeri press on Saturday.
The ethnic Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh "will continue living
there as before," Aliyev said. "We have no objections to this,"
he said.
If Armenia considers the modern-day realities and Azerbaijan's growing
political clout and economic might, takes the right steps, and leaves
the occupied territories, it will also help the ethnic Armenians
living in Nagorno-Karabakh, Aliyev said. "But if it does not realize
this and continues its predatory policy, then the consequences for
Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh could be very bitter," he said.
The Azeri armed forces can easily restore Azerbaijan's sovereignty
in Nagorno-Karabakh, but Azerbaijan does not want blood to be shed
and war resumed again, Aliyev said.
