President Ilham Aliyev: Commitment to international law by Azerbaijan and Türkiye lays strong foundation for regional stability
The alliance and fraternal ties between Azerbaijan and Türkiye, along with both nations' steadfast commitment to the principles of international law, form a solid basis for ensuring lasting peace and stability in the region.
According to AZERTAC, President Ilham Aliyev emphasized this point in his address to participants of the international conference titled “The Right of Return to Western Azerbaijan as a Key Element of Human Rights.”
"Unfortunately, due to armed conflicts and racial discrimination, millions of people around the world have been forcibly displaced from their native lands, living as refugees. During and after the First World War, Armenian radicalism and extremism inflicted unprecedented suffering on the Azerbaijani people. As a result, hundreds of thousands of our compatriots were forcibly expelled from their ancestral homes and subjected to mass killings and atrocities," the President stated.
He further noted that between 1918–1921, 1948–1953, and 1987–1991, systematic and widespread ethnic cleansing was carried out against Azerbaijanis living in Western Azerbaijan – present-day Armenia. This campaign of expulsion left no ethnic Azerbaijanis in Armenia. In addition to being a grave humanitarian tragedy, this ethnic cleansing served a broader geopolitical agenda. The transfer of Western Zangazur from Azerbaijan to Armenia in 1920 severed the land connection between the main part of Azerbaijan and the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, which is an inseparable part of the country.
