Azerbaijani deputy FM urges Armenian President to be careful while making statements

"The Armenia President should be careful while making statements on Nagorno-Karabakh issue, because Azerbaijan has repeatedly voiced its proposals,” Azerbaijani Deputy FM and Personal Representative of the Azerbaijani President on Nagorno-Karabakh conflict Araz Azimov said.

According to deputy FM, now it is up to Armenia to express its position on the updated version of the Madrid principles.

"The Armenian President should seriously consider these opportunities if he worries about people who want to live in peace and long-lasting cooperation with Azerbaijanis. Time is running out. In my opinion, the Armenian side is using inappropriate methods to gain time, but I do not think it will succeed.”

“On the one hand, Armenia should abide by international law and on the other, benefit from and appreciate Azerbaijan’s striving to peace and compromise in the full sense of the word. If it does not appreciate, Azerbaijan will restore its territorial integrity, of course, ensuring safety of its citizens of Armenian nationality. This is a very serious matter. No one should be make senseless statements in this regard," Azimov added.

Earlier at a meeting with representatives of the Armenian community of Syria, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated that Armenia is not ready to make unilateral concessions in the Karabakh issue and is waiting for proposals from Azerbaijan.
