The progress of events, the second Karabakh war and the actions of international forces show that this issue could never be resolved through negotiations. This was stated by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev in Shushi.

“The progress of events, the second Karabakh war and the actions of international forces show that this issue could never be resolved through negotiations. Because they wanted us, the Azerbaijanis, to come to terms with this situation,” Aliyev said.

According to him, the international community tried to portray the frozen conflict as a no-alternative option.
