“We don’t support realization of any military operation against
neighboring Iran,” told Azerbaijan president Ilham Aliyev in his
interview to the American television NBC, Trend reports.

“The position of Azerbaijan is clear. I consider that all
question should be resolved peacefully and diplomatically,” told
president. He noted that the international community recommended to
resolve Azerbaijani-Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh conflict peacefully and
Azerbaijan has been holding negotiations for more that ten years. “We
recommend not to consider the military force. We consider that still
there are opportunities to peacefully resolve the conflict and this
process should be continued until the final moment,” told Aliyev.

The Azerbaijani president considers that the opportunities to
peacefully resolve the conflict haven’t finished yet. “These
opportunities should be researched and a decision should be made. And
the made decision shouldn’t violate the stability in the region,”
stated Aliyev.
