The Karabakh issue has never been a territorial issue, but a question of self-determination. We have been talking about this for more than 30 years. And the Karabakh issue should be settled within the framework of the right to self-determination. [Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan in response to Aliyev's speech]
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said in his speech at the 76th session of the UN General Assembly that "there is no longer an administrative-territorial unit called Nagorno-Karabakh in Azerbaijan." According to him, Azerbaijan has settled the Karabakh conflict through military and political means and "restored its territorial integrity and historical justice."
Azerbaijan has appealed to the UN International Court of Justice against Armenia for violations of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination.

The conflict is over, so Azerbaijan has already declared its readiness to start negotiations with Armenia on a peace treaty based on the principle of delimitation and demarcation of borders, mutual recognition of each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Such an agreement can turn our region into a region of peace and cooperation. Nevertheless, we have not yet seen a positive response from Armenia to our proposal. [President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev]
