Aliyev grants houses for Karabakh veterans President Ilham Aliyev
has restated Azerbaijan's opposition to the independence of
Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azerbaijan will not allow a second Armenian state to be created on its
territory, he said when opening a residential block for Karabakh war
disabled and martyrs' families in Lokbatan, south of Baku, yesterday.
"All norms of international law are in our favour. Armenia illegally
occupied Azerbaijani lands and displaced or made refugees of hundreds
of thousands of our citizens through their policy of ethnic cleansing,"
Aliyev said. He said that Nagorno-Karabakh was "ancient Azerbaijani
land" and "everyone knows that Armenians settled there in the 19th
century".
"Nagorno-Karabakh is an inseparable part of Azerbaijan. This is
proven by historical truth and the norms of international law. There
will never be a second Armenian state on Azerbaijani land, Nagorno
Karabakh will never be independent and the whole world knows this. And
Armenia's understanding of this will promote the rapid resolution of
the conflict. After the issue is settled, peace in the region will
be completely restored," the president said.
He described the Karabakh conflict as the region's biggest problem.
"No other problem can be settled without the resolution of this
conflict," the head of state said.
He voiced confidence that the Karabakh conflict would be settled and
the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan would be restored through the
mobilization of all efforts in Azerbaijan, including the strengthening
of the army, political steps, economic development and the solidarity
of all Azerbaijani citizens.
