We are already hopeless about the international mechanisms of
settlement. We cannot put up with this situation. We will never put
up with the loss of the territories. We will never allow Nagorno
Karabakh to separate from Azerbaijan and that is not an issue of
negotiations. The only issue of negotiations can be the territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan and the security of all the nations living
in the region», announced President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliev today
during the school-leaving ceremony of the High Military School after
Heydar Aliev, agency «Trend» reports.

Till when do we have to participate in negotiations?

How long can we wait? Our patience is not endless.

Today Azerbaijan is developing rapidly. Armenia cannot catch up with
us in the economic, political and military field. Let them think in
Armenia where the two countries will be in one, three, or five years.

Armenia does not have any way of development. They are isolated from
all the international and regional programs, the possibilities of
economic development are restricted, and half of the population has
left the country. According to our information, they have difficulty
in protecting the borders due to the lack of human resources», the
Azeri President announced.

We don’t have any other problems except Nagorno Karabakh, that’s why
we must spend all the resources on the formation of the army», Aliev
said mentioning that Azerbaijan is at was and must pay attention to the
army. «We try to strengthen the army in every way we can. We must add
financing which we do. The military expenses have increased fourfold
for the last three years. In 2003 135 million USD were spent in the
military field, whereas in 2006 700 million», Ilham Aliev announced.
