Situation With Karabakh Unfair: Azeri President

SITUATION WITH KARABAKH UNFAIR: AZERI PRESIDENT

YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 5. ARMINFO. Azerbaijan is very strong and Armenia
will not stand its pressure. But we do not want war for it will claim
many lives. Let’s nobody doubt this, Azeri President Ilham Aliev says
in an interview to Hurriyet.

He says that each Azeri believes that one day the “occupied” lands
will be liberated and the Azeri flag will be hoisted over Karabakh.

Commenting on his Kazan meeting with Armenian President Robert
Kocharyan Aliev says that there are no results yet. “The Armenians
are waiting for us to give them independence. But this is impossible!
Our territorial integrity is our top priority. I told Kocharyan that
we are ready to guarantee the security of Karabakh’s Armenians. I
stressed that Baku will not let them face any danger.” “But the
Armenian army does not want to leave our lands.”

Aliev says that during a recent phone talk US State Secretary
Condoleeza Rice told him that Washington wants the parties to settle
their conflict. “I wonder why being an occupant Armenia is still
unpunished though I certainly understand that the Armenian lobby is
strong. This situtaton is extremely unfair,” says Aliev.

He notes that after the talk he felt some softening in Kocharyan’s
position but this was not enough for settling the problem. “We have
taken all possible steps but Armenia keeps ignoring the international
public opinion. The West advocates quick resolution. We are doing our
best for that. Then we will sit down and think it over,” says Aliev.
