one of the discussed principles at negotiation table, forgets about
the others – Elkhan Polukhov.

It should be recalled that the updated Madrid principles has 3 basic

of Azerbaijan Elkhan Polukhov told journalists in his interview.

Commenting on the recent statement of President Serzh Sargsyan,
Polukhov said the talks were based on respect for sovereignty and
territorial integrity of states, principles of non use of force and
ensure the people of their own destiny: "To base one of the principles
and try to forget about the others – it is one of the political
games of the Armenian side. These principles were put forward at the
negotiating table by Minsk Group co-chairs states. Azerbaijan as a
whole has accepted the updated Madrid principles. But Armenia is still
escapes from the unambiguous answer to this question. Azerbaijan’s
position is unambiguous. Territorial integrity of Azerbaijan can
not raise doubt and the right to determine their own destiny can be
realized only in the framework of territorial integrity. To implement
this principle Armenian armed forces must leave the territory of
Azerbaijan. Once occupation forces will be withdrawn, the essence of
military rhetoric will be lost".

To Polukhov, Azerbaijan continues negotiations due to the fact that
negotiations have the potential: "But we have always said, and state
that Azerbaijan has the right to ensure its territorial integrity,
using all the mechanisms of international law".

Note that, Serzh Sargsyan, in an interview with Euronews television
channel, announced his intention to appeal to Azerbaijan with a
proposal in connection with the signing of an agreement on nonuse
of force.
