ArmInfo.Unresolved perennial conflicts remain the main challenges that hinder the preservation of the stability and security of the region. Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov expressed this opinion at the 5th World Forum on Intercultural Dialogue in Baku.
In this regard, he assured that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is still the main threat to regional security.
He did not fail to once again accuse Armenia of "occupying historical Azerbaijani territories", forgetting to point out that the Armenians lived in Karabakh before Azerbaijan appeared as a state.
Mammadyarov also started an old song about non-compliance with UN Security Council resolutions, which were adopted during the hostilities and were distributed only at that period. At the same time, trying to enlist the support of society, and at least somehow justify the disappointing state in which the population of the state turned out to have serious energy resources, Mammdyarov tried to assure that, they say, Armenia did not achieve any achievements within the country and continues to be a country with "a high rate of migration, poverty, unemployment, and as a result of all this - with a weak economy and a low social standard of living."
The head of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry also claims that it is not necessary to wait for the fact that Armenia can approach any indicators of sustainable development. "The situation in it is such that already in Armenia they don't believe in the future of the country, which explains the rapidly growing outflow of the population. Moreover, they cannot give at least one argument about what Armenia has achieved by imposing the Karabakh conflict on Azerbaijan and the region" - added Mammadyarov for greater persuasiveness.
"We are in favor of a peaceful way to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, and we believe that it should be resolved in accordance with the principles and laws of international law, subject to the inviolability of our borders and the restoration of the "territorial integrity" of Azerbaijan," Mammadyarov concluded.
