Armenian Deputy FM responds to Aliyev’s statement
It is no secret that Azerbaijan’s denial of the right to self-determination through the distortion of the essence of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, anti-Armenian propaganda and the threats to restart the war are the key obstacles to the negotiation process. Once again, this was expressed in the Azeri President’s latest speech, Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan said in response to a question of Armenpress about the latest statement of Azeri President Ilham Aliyev that “Armenia is inferior to Azerbaijan in all aspects, which will play a crucial role in the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.”
According to Kocharyan, Aliyev could have voiced more impressive figures by comparing his country with the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. “However, he avoids doing that as he has not forgotten that the aggression unleashed by Azerbaijan resulted in its defeat by Nagorno-Karabakh, despite any figures, and he realizes very well that a new adventure will lead to new defeats.”
