The Azeri President Ilham Aliev made two contradicting statements in
the course of three days. He said, "I have assigned the government and
patriots of Azerbaijan to fight against Armenia in all fronts until
they leave our territory. When they do so, our relations will come back
to normal again and we can live side by side like neighbors." Shortly
after this statement, Aliev said, "Azerbaijan has friendly relations
with all states in the region and with its neighbors."

Aliev made the address to the government of Azerbaijan and Azeri
patriots in an interview to Al-Djazura, an Arab TV station, speaking,
in fact, to mainly Muslim community. Aliev also claimed that Yerevan
conducts "policy of aggression to its neighbors." Azerbaijan
probably forgets that she is making militaristic statements
herself.
