President Ilham Aliyev: Statements adopted in Prague and Sochi once again demonstrates that the Karabakh conflict was left in the past

Baku, November 11, AZERTAC “Although two years have passed since the end of the Second Karabakh War, Armenia continues to commit military provocations on the border. In the latest one, in September, the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan had to launch a resolute counter-offensive operation to repel yet another military provocation by Armenia,” said President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev as he made a speech at the 9th Summit of the Organization of Turkic States in Samarkand. “In order to misguide the world public opinion, Armenia is trying to baselessly accuse Azerbaijan of military aggression. We categorically reject these groundless claims. We fought on our lands, defeated the Armenian army and expelled them from our ancestral lands. Today, we are also in our native lands in the direction of the Azerbaijan-Armenia border,” the Azerbaijani President noted. “In October, Azerbaijan and Armenia officially recognized each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity by joint statements adopted in Prague and Sochi. It once again demonstrates that the Karabakh conflict was left in the past,” the head of state added.
