Azerbaijani Official Accuses Armenia of Grossly Violating November 10 Statement

Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan and Head of the Foreign Policy Department of the Presidential Administration, Hikmat Hajiyev, accused Armenia of grossly violating the provisions of the statement signed on November 10, 2020.

According to Hajiyev, remnants of the Armenian army remain in the Karabakh region, with about 10,000 personnel still not completely withdrawn from the territory of Azerbaijan. He also stated that illegal Armenian armed formations are creating new posts and engineering fortifications, polluting Azerbaijani territories with mines produced in Armenia in 2021, and shelling Azerbaijani army positions, attempting to create a new 'line of contact.'

Hajiyev added that seven villages of the Gazakh district and one village of Nakhchivan are still under occupation, and the Lachin road was used for military purposes, contrary to the November 10 statement. He further claimed that Armenia was not fulfilling its obligations regarding the Zangazur corridor, and not a single car has passed from the western districts of Azerbaijan to Nakhchivan.

Despite Armenia's recognition of Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and sovereignty at meetings in Prague and Sochi in 2022, Hajiyev accused the Prime Minister and other Armenian officials of threatening Azerbaijan and making statements that call into question Azerbaijan's sovereignty and territorial integrity. He warned that such actions have been increasing lately.
