President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev demands compensation from companies that have extracted gold in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).

This concerns the companies that have operated in Kovsakan and Karvachar, which are occupied by Azerbaijan.

“These companies have two options — either they pay compensation and accept our conditions, or the issue is solved by laws…Once again, I would like to say that they [the companies-ed.] need to recover the damage, pay the Azerbaijani state compensation, and only in that case will they be able to live comfortably,” Aliyev declared.
