According to Ilham Aliyev, there should be two ways in this process: Azerbaijan-Armenia the process of normalization of relations and also the issues related to the Armenian minority in Azerbaijan and Karabakh from the point of view of rights and security:
“These should not mix with each other. However, the statements from Armenia are very contradictory. They say they recognize our territory and sovereignty. They not only say it, but also sign it in Prague and Sochi. This means the sovereignty of our entire territory. We all understand what sovereignty is. At the same time, they want to bring the issues related to the Armenian minority in Azerbaijan to a peace agreement. It won’t happen and it can’t. We will not agree to this. Therefore to us Armenia government needs a clear position on its agenda. I said recently that if they want peace, we will want peace. If they don’t want peace, then that’s their choice. We have not had peace for thirty years, and Armenia should not forget how it ended.”
