"We will never allow the creation of the second Armenian state in the
territory of Azerbaijan. If Armenians residing in Nagorno-Garabagh
want to decide their fate, they must do it basing on the principle
of Azerbaijan`s territorial integrity, but if they do not want to do
this, they must leave Nagorno-Garabagh and create their second state
in another place. Anyway, the creation of the second Armenian state in
Azerbaijan`s territory is impossible,"- President Ilham Aliyev said in
his Solidarity Day and New Year greetings to the people of Azerbaijan.
According to the Head of State, non-constructive position of the
Armenian side, its aggressive policy prevented us from solving this
problem in 2007.
"We will never make a concession concerning our territorial integrity.
Azerbaijan`s territorial integrity is inviolable; the Nagorno-Garabagh
will never be given independence. The leadership and the people of
Azerbaijan will never agree with that, and the international community
will never recognize independence of Nagorno-Garabagh. We are holding
talks in this direction,"- President Aliyev added.
