Yashar Aliyev: Armenia must genuinely engage in post-conflict normalization negotiations
Baku, August 17, AZERTAC
“Armenia must cease its actions undermining the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, abstain from meddling in our internal affairs, and genuinely engage in post-conflict normalization negotiations. It is of vital importance that the historic opportunity for durable peace in the region is not missed,” said Permanent Representative of the Republic of Azerbaijan to the United Nations Yashar Aliyev as he addressed an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to discuss the alleged “humanitarian crisis” created in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan.
“Verbal statements by the leadership of Armenia on the recognition of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, including the Garabagh region, created a ground for cautious optimism that the peace is indeed within reach. Now, Armenia has to transform this statement into the real deeds and refrain from questioning the sovereignty of Azerbaijan, including under the pretext of “humanitarian needs” of the local Armenian residents of the Garabagh region of Azerbaijan,” Yashar Aliyev emphasized.
