Our policy is completely clear, both during the period of war and in connection with the settlement of the former Karabakh conflict and the future. We proposed that both countries recognize the territorial integrity of each other, began work on delimiting borders and on the process of opening communications, and also signed a peace treaty. This was announced by Ilham Aliyev President in an interview with Azerbaijani media.
“Signing a peaceport, though not a 100 percent guarantee, but in any case, largely minimizes the risk of war.
