"For many years our position was very clear and several times
I personally, publicly declared that we are ready to grant the
highest possible autonomy existing in the world to people who live in
Nagorno-Karabakh and who will return to Nagorno-Karabakh", Azerbaijani
President Ilham Aliyev said in his interview with ArmInfo.
"That will be the subject for future negotiations and in our minds
it could be a meaningful autonomy. The positive example of autonomy
existing in Europe, I think, could be very attractive because it would
be difficult for us to invent something new. We have positive examples
in European countries. For instance in Italy, and Tyrol in Austria,
and other places where central government pays a lot of attention,
maybe much more attention, to autonomy, and financial support is much
broader in order to provide decent living conditions for the people.
We can do the same. Azerbaijan is a country with vast financial
resources and for us it will not be a big problem to implement serious
social and economic development programmes for Nagorno-Karabakh",
he said.
To note, the assurances of Aliyev Jr. to ensure financial welfare
to the Karabakh people against the background of constant military
rhetoric and anti-Armenian sentiment in Azerbaijan sound at least
cynical and absolutely improbable.
