(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 18. If sanctions were
imposed on Armenia, then there would probably be no war, President
Ilham Aliyev said in his press statement, Trend reports.
'As for the second Karabakh war, I would like to note that
Azerbaijan has fully exercised the right given to us by the UN
Charter, the right to self-defense. We had remained committed to
negotiations for about 30 years, but they yielded zero results. For
a long time, I personally always called for the international
community to impose sanctions on Armenia. If sanctions, serious
sanctions had been imposed, there would have probably been no war.
Unfortunately, Armenia took advantage of a very special attitude
towards itself, and no sanctions were imposed on it even though it
had flagrantly violated international law and occupied the
territory of another country,' the head of state said.
