On the fourth anniversary of the occupation of Shushi, Aliyev issues  new threats against Armenia

ArmInfo. On the fourth anniversary of the occupation of Shushi, Azerbaijani president Ilham  Aliyev, the permanent leader, has once again issued threats against  Armenia and sought to portray the outcome of the 44-day  Nagorno-Karabakh war as solely his own achievement.

He then boasted about the forceful resolution of this conflict,  emphasizing the impunity he felt. "Although many countries standing  behind Armenia tried to pressure us into accepting this occupation  through various means, the Azerbaijani people remember very well how  the great powers and the mediators who allegedly tried to resolve the  Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, repeatedly claimed that there was no  military solution.  Their plans were not to resolve the issue or end  the occupation, but keep Azerbaijani lands under Armenian occupation  forever," stated Aliyev, who had occupied sovereign Armenian  territories. He went on to accuse "Western admirers" of Armenia of  trying to portray Armenia as a "dove of peace."

 " For 30 years, all the Minsk Group co-chairs, have supported  Armenia: some provided weapons for free, some gave money, and some  offered both weapons and money, while giving political support to  maintain the occupation of "our lands," Aliyev continued. He bragged  about the aggression and de-Armenization of Artsakh, acknowledging  that his regime is gradually erasing traces of Armenian presence on  centuries-old Armenian territory following ethnic cleansing. 

Then Aliyev began openly threatening Armenia. "However, there is one  question, and we should not forget that today the anti-Azerbaijani  forces, who do not want to accept the current situation, the  Islamophobes and Azerbaijanophobes in some Western capitals, are  encouraging Armenia towards a new war. This could be a complete  tragedy for the Armenian state. I have repeatedly tried to explain to  the Armenian side in my official speeches and during our  interactions, that they should avoid this path. Armenia needs to  abandon its policy of arming itself. I have stated this many times,  and they should heed my words. It is not too late to stop, they will  never be able to compete with us," said Aliyev confidently, seemingly  convinced that cargo planes with weapons can only land at Baku  airport daily. Additionally, he declared that the events surrounding  Artsakh are "not just a defeat for Armenia, but a bitter and  humiliating defeat for those who stand behind it."
