Having completed ethnic cleansing in Artsakh, Ilham Aliyev spoke  about peace in South Caucasus

ArmInfo.Having completed ethnic cleansing in Artsakh, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev spoke 

about peace in the South Caucasus.

Thus, during a speech at the opening ceremony of the 74th 

International Astronautical Congress in Baku, he declared the 

uniqueness and inimitability of the Azerbaijani experience of 

"restoring territorial integrity." And Aliyev did not cheat, because 

the entire international community silently watched as enemy forces 

cleared Artsakh of its indigenous population - the Armenians, who had 

lived on this land for thousands of years.

"We put an end to the conflict. As a result of the resolution of this 

conflict, we retained our dignity and restored international law. 

Today we can enter an era of peace in the South Caucasus. This is our 

opinion.  Cooperation, mutually beneficial projects, mutual benefit - 

we are demonstrating all this today," - Aliyev emphasized with 

cynicism, who, inspired by the tacit encouragement of the 

international community, openly boasted about how Artsakh had been 

de-Armenized.

Aliyev also touched upon the role of Azerbaijan as a supplier of 

energy resources to Europe. "We initiated a number of projects and 

successfully implemented them together with our partners. Thus, we 

ensured the energy security not only of our region, but also of the 

wider region as a whole: Azerbaijan is a reliable supplier of energy 

resources to international markets and is valued by the European 

Union as a pan- European supplier,"  he noted.

The opening ceremony of the 74th International Astronautical Congress 

took place today in Baku. It is noteworthy that despite the ongoing 

ethnic cleansing in Artsakh, over 5 thousand representatives of space 

agencies, government agencies, investors and private space companies 

from 101 countries, including about 50 astronauts, arrived to this 

aggressor country without a twinge of conscience. Among the agencies 

and companies participating in the exhibition are the space agencies 

from the USA, Russia, Turkey, Japan, Italy, France, India, etc.
