We have been living in peace for only seven months.
“Elchi” reports that this was stated by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in Baku during his press statement with the President of the European Council António Costa.
“Independence was gained in 1991, and only in the last seven months has a period of peace been experienced. I am confident that peace will continue. We have already started trade and launched the supply of important oil products to Armenia. This is once again a demonstration of our strong political will. I believe that this is the best indicator of both sides’ intention to build healthy relations and remain committed to peace. Therefore, the main topic on our agenda is the discussion of security issues in the region,” the head of state emphasized.
