of combining the efforts of all the countries against international
terrorism, Mr. Aliyev said that Azerbaijan has been suffering terrorism
and Armenian terror acts against Azerbaijan claimed thousands of

international organizations and great powers of double standards in
approaching the occupation fact.

"Over one million Azerbaijan were ejected from their motherland. The
world closes eyes to this fact."

lands by Armenia and urged to implement them, APA reports.
