‘The rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh will be ensured in accordance with the Constitution of Azerbaijan’ – Aliyev

‘The rights and security of the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh will be ensured in accordance with the Constitution of Azerbaijan.’ This was stated by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev during a speech at the meeting of the Council of Heads of CIS Countries held in Astana on October 14.

‘And finally, regarding the fate of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh. We also exchanged views on this issue during the meeting in Prague. Our position is clear and precise. Nagorno-Karabakh is Azerbaijan. The rights and security of the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh will be ensured in accordance with the Constitution of Azerbaijan. We do not intend to discuss our internal issues with any of the parties. And as far as I understood from the results of the meeting in Prague, this topic did not cause contradictions among the participants of the quadrilateral meeting,’ Aliyev added.
