Azerbaijan’s armed forces are ready to liberate the Azeri territories
seized by Armenia, presidential aide for military issues Vakhid
Aliyev said.

"We are ready to carry out military operations any time following
an order from the commander-in-chief and liberate the occupied
territories," Aliyev told journalists on Tuesday.

"Armenia clearly sees that the Azeri armed forces are improving their
combat readiness on a daily basis and are acquiring modern equipment
and weaponry. Morale in Azeri troops is high, and we can liberate
the occupied territories at any moment," he said.
