Karabakh issue
AZERBAIJAN HIGHLIGHTS NATIONAL INTERESTS AND LEGAL
REGULATIONS
President of Azerbaijan stated that the country’s
territorial integrity is not an issue to be discussed
within the Nagorno Karabakh negotiations agenda.
According to Interfax news agency, Ilham Aliyev
emphasized that Azerbaijan is going to settle the
Karabakh issue “based on Azerbaijan’s national
interests and international legal regulations.”
This frequent statement of the Azeri leader leave an
impression of self-persuasion at best, as it would be
simply strange to take steps contradicting national
interests and international legal regulations. The
fact that Aliyev repeatedly speaks of Azerbaijan’s
priority – international legal regulations – evidences
perhaps that his war language has exhausted itself
even for domestic consumption.
