    ILHAM ALIYEV: "THE WAR HAS NOT ENDED YET, IT IS JUST ITS FIRST STAGE THAT HAS FINISHED"

    "Armenians state that they have won the war. But it is not right. The
    war has not ended yet, it is just its first stage that has finished
    and during which Armenians managed to occupy a part of Azerbaijani
    lands with the help from abroad", President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev
    said during the opening ceremony of the Olympic complex in Agdam.

    "We are establishing a strong state, strengthening the army and
    the economic potential for release of the occupied lands: regional
    positions of Azerbaijan are consolidating, energy policy is successful,
    which have a positive influence on the negotiation process.

    Previously Armenians demanded independence of Nagorno Garabagh,
    while now they understand that Garabagh will never be independent or
    annexed to Armenia".

    The President noted that this is the opinion of the whole international
    community, including the co-chairmen of the OSCE Minsk Group and
    Armenia has to confess it.

    The President said that previously the discussed was the release of
    only 4 occupied regions around Garabagh, while now the co-chairmen
    demand from the leadership of Armenia to return all the 7 regions,
    which is really a great success.

    Commenting on the recent proposals of the co-chairs on the Garabagh
    conflict settlement, the President noted that they are not fully
    suitable for Azerbaijan.

    "Several moments are inadmissible for us, but, on the whole, the
    process continues in the right direction. We have achieved this by
    strengthening our potential and Armenia is aware of it".

    Ilham Aliyev expressed regret that such negative events as the attempts
    to turn the former autonomous republics into independent countries
    are observed in the world, which is inadmissible.

    "Therefore, only a strong state may reach justice. Time is working
    on us and I want the future peaceful agreement to fully correspond to
    our interests, which is not observed right now. And for this purpose
    we are continuing talks. Azerbaijan's position is changeless and our
    territorial integrity will never be a subject of discussions"
