Report.ge, an influential portal based in Georgia, has published an article about the meeting of Azerbaijani President, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev with the servicemen, who were wounded as a result of Armenia’s military provocations and are currently receiving treatment at the Central Military Clinical Hospital of the Defense Ministry.
The article, entitled “We have nothing against the Armenian nation”, was published in Russian and English languages.
“If the Armenian people want to live in peace, they should hold their government accountable. Because the misfortune of the Armenian people lies in the fact that for many years they were governed by a crooked criminal regime, the regime that committed genocide against the Azerbaijanis only for personal gains and keeps our lands under occupation. I am sure that the Armenian people will understand my words correctly. We have nothing against the Armenian people,” the Georgian portal cited the Azerbaijani leader as saying.
President Aliyev continued: “Azerbaijan is a multinational state; many nations live here in peace and tranquillity, including the Armenian people. Thousands of Armenians live in Azerbaijan. There are not pushed around because they are our citizens. Therefore, our struggle is a struggle for a just cause. We are right from the point of view of history, from the point of view of international law, and the point of view of justice. Azerbaijani soldiers and officers are fighting for their native land.
Fierce battles are underway in Fizuli, Jabrayil and other occupied territories today, we are suffering losses, and our veterans and servicemen are getting wounded. But this fight is a fight for a just cause. Therefore, I want to say again that our cause is just, historical truth, international law and justice are on our side by 100 percent.”
