“Azerbaijan will liberate Nagorno-Karabakh from separatists sooner or later. Don’t think that we will banish the Armenians from there, after removing separatists. They were born and live in Nagorno Karabakh. Those who have the right to live there will stay in the region. However, we will eliminate Armenian expansionist regime in Nagorno-Karabakh and prevent Armenia to support this regime. This is definitely going to be,” said chief of socio-political department of the Presidential Administration Ali Hasanov addressing the seminar of the Youth Union of New Azerbaijan Party on “Role of young people in social-political life of the state”, APA reports.
Hasanov noted that time works in favor of Azerbaijan in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict: “We are becoming stronger. Armenia is weakening day by day and people are leaving here. If it goes, there will be no more than a million people and it will be elder and sick people, who couldn’t leave the country. In fact, all resources of this country have been depleted. A group of separatist has built a business around the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Nagorno Karabakh is used for drug cultivation, drug trafficking and other illegal activities. It is impossible to go far in such way.”
The territories of Azerbaijan occupied by Armenia didn’t increase the resources of Armenia: “On the contrary, it was difficult to find an Armenian that will protect the regime. It will be impossible to maintain the outdated tanks and vehicles of Russia. If Armenia had used Azerbaijan’s projects at one time, million of dollars would enter their budget every year. We are positive. If we lose our patience, we will use other means.” /APA/
