Azerbaijan doesn’t intend to start a war with Armenia, Elchin Amirbayov, representative of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan for Special Assignments, said in an interview with Radio France, XQ informs.

He noted that Azerbaijan wants to resume negotiations with Armenia to achieve peace:

"Of course, if Armenia attacks us, we will not sit idly by. But I do not believe that this is in the interests of Armenia. We need to return to the path of negotiations and take advantage of the desire of the European Union to advance the peace process. It is necessary to talk about the delimitation of borders, lines of communication. If Armenia joins our efforts to establish peace and stability, we are fully prepared to contribute. Charles Michel has done a good job as President of the European Council to help restart negotiations. Azerbaijan is ready for trilateral negotiations with the European Union."

He added that Azerbaijan will once again confirm in the peace treaty its unconditional commitment to the principle of the territorial integrity of countries.

"We will put an end to this hostility, which has been going on for almost thirty years. Armenia’s statements that Azerbaijan is preparing for a new war are completely baseless. We respect the territorial integrity of Armenia, like all other countries in the world," he said.
