Armenia continues to distort the decision of the International Court of Justice regarding the Lachin road on Feb. 23 rather than giving a positive response to Baku’s proposal to establish a border checkpoint at the beginning of the road, said spokesperson for Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Aykhan Hajizade as he commented on allegations made by Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan.
“Instead of making baseless statements, we demand that the Armenian side return to the negotiations on the peace agreement, which they refused since December last year, open communications, comply with the obligations arising from the trilateral Statement, including the complete withdrawal of its forces from the territories of Azerbaijan, and refrain from taking steps against the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Azerbaijan,” Aykhan Hajizade added.
