BAKU, March 21 (RIA Novosti’s Gherai Dadashev) – An Azeri-Armenian
war may start any day, President Ilkham Aliev of Azerbaijan said
to newsmen.
“A war can break off any instant as there is no peace agreement
between us. There is only a ceasefire, and ceasefire is a very
ticklish matter. There are violations of the arrangement. They run
counter to our interests, as you all know-the achievements we have
made do not force us to break the ceasefire.”
As President Aliev emphasized, Azerbaijan is anxious to see the
Azeri-Armenian issue and the Karabakh conflict peacefully settled. “We
want a peaceful way out of the conflict under the impact of the world
public, and with the Armenian top to take a correct stance on the
issue. If it does not, things will certainly change. We shall talk
on the matter later on.”
