(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 10. The Austrian
online newspaper published an
dedicated to the President of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev's speech to the servicemen following the
event organized on the occasion of the Victory Day in Shusha on
November 8.
The article cited the words of President Ilham Aliyev regarding
the lessons that Armenia should learn from the Second Karabakh War
as well as a warning that 'playing with fire will cost them dearly'
and 'If anyone there, be it the government, the opposition or some
element sent or trained from abroad, wants to have some bad
intentions against us again, they will see our fist again. The
history of the last two years has shown this clearly'.
The article said that President Ilham Aliyev expressed hope that
all this will become a lesson for Armenia, force it to give up its
claims on the territory of Azerbaijan and once again emphasized
that Karabakh is Azerbaijan.
'We have taught them this lesson, and we hope that they finally
understand it, bend their necks and deal with their internal
affairs, not set their sights on our lands, not set their sights on
Karabakh. Karabakh is our land,' the article quoted the words of
the Head of the state.
The article stated that President Ilham Aliyev once again called
on the Armenian side to stop relying on someone to implement its
destructive plans, warning that otherwise it could face tragedy
again.
The article also cited the words of the Head of the states that
international agreements are a prerogative for Azerbaijan, which
fulfills its obligations, remains faithful to them under the
statement of November 10, 2020, and also that although Armenia
after the second Karabakh war, complied with its provisions in fear
(and as a result, the territories of Aghdam, Kalbajar, Lachin
districts that were under occupation were returned to Azerbaijan
without a single shot), the country again began to drag out time
and evade obligations.
'What are the Armenian armed forces doing in Karabakh? Our
patience is not inexhaustible, and I want to warn them again that
if this obligation is not fulfilled, Azerbaijan will take necessary
steps,' the article quoted the words of President Ilham Aliyev.
According to the Head of the state, while Azerbaijan hasn't
interfered with the movement of cars that drive along the Lachin
road from Armenia to Karabakh and in the opposite direction for two
years, Armenia still continues to neglect its obligation to provide
transport links between the western regions of Azerbaijan and the
Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic: 'Two years have passed, but there
is no feasibility study, no movement, no railway, no road. How much
longer are we supposed to wait?'
The article also reflected the appeal of President Ilham Aliyev
to Armenian people: 'Do not become a victim of the circles who sit
abroad and want to treat this region as a playground for the second
time.'
The article cited the words of President Ilham Aliyev, where he
once again clearly expressed the position of the Azerbaijani side,
stating that Azerbaijan is aimed at peace, at signing a peace
treaty with Armenia, while noting that this peace treaty should
take into account fair conditions that are consonant with
international law: 'If Armenia shows goodwill, it will be signed,
if not, it will not be signed. Time will show what happens
next'.
