In an interview Al-Jazeera Arabic satellite news channel, President
of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev touched on Iran-Armenia relations, saying
it raises public concern in Azerbaijan. According to him, not only
Iran but also other states also have good relationship with Armenia.
This fact must not have an impact on political decision-making in
Azerbaijan. On the contrary, Azerbaijan must seek better relations
itself with those countries.
Saying Armenia is a defeated party in terms of diplomacy, President
Ilham Aliyev added that the countries, which were allies to Armenia,
became friends for Azerbaijan as well. Azerbaijan is more important
for them than Armenia. The land-locked Armenia is not interesting for
them because it is geographically disadvantaged and has already been
left out of regional energy projects. Kars-Tbilisi-Baku railway will
isolate Armenia even more.
Azerbaijan is the country that delivers energy resources to the world
markets and located along the East-West corridor. According to the
President, Armenia cannot be compared with Azerbaijan.
