Aliev: The feud between Azerbaijan and Armenia must be over.

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev addressed the panel discussion on security in the South Caucasus in Munich. According to him, Baku and Yerevan should show everyone that the violence should be stopped and a peace treaty signed.
Baku is ready to talk to the Armenian minority in Karabakh - but to those who were born and live there. Some do not want to accept the realities after the Second Karabakh War, but they will have to. The peace agreement between Baku and Yerevan should be organized on the basis of international norms and principles», - said Aliyev.
The President of Azerbaijan stressed that it was unacceptable to have any separate provision on Karabakh.
In turn, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, who also spoke in Munich, reminded that the term "Nagorny Karabakh" exists, and that is signed by the head of Azerbaijan. The term is used in the trilateral agreement of November 9, 2020, to which Aliyev also signed. In the same document there is the term "Lachin corridor", which should not be under the control of Azerbaijan», - said Pashinyan. The position of Armenia is one of democracy and dialogue, respect for all countries in the region, which is an ongoing process, he concluded.
