If Armenia takes a constructive position, proposals at negotiating
table can be a good basis to achieve a peace solution to the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, said President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev
while receiving participants of the Baku conference of heads of
law-enforcement agencies of Organization of Islamic Conference
member states.

The Head of State said Azerbaijan has not a territorial claim against
any country, stressing we will never give our lands to anybody and the
world community will never recognize the so called Nagorno-Karabakh
regime.

Azerbaijan will never agree with it, and restore its territorial
integrity by all means. We just want to achieve this peacefully,
through negotiations.

The Azerbaijani leader said his country`s stance remains unchanged,
adding Nagorno-Karabakh is integral part of Azerbaijan and historical
justice must be restored.
