BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 25. Azerbaijan is transforming from a regional power into a global one, contributing to the solution of global issues, the local political expert Azer Garayev told Trend.
The expert pointed out that President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, speaking at an international forum on COP29 and Green Vision for Azerbaijan at ADA University, highlighted a number of important issues.
"Once again, the head of state provided the international community with complete information about the current situation and expectations in the region," he said.
According to Garayev, Azerbaijan's liberation of its lands from occupation and the complete guarantee of territorial integrity and sovereignty, the normalization process of Armenian-Azerbaijani relations, and Armenia's return of four villages in Gazakh district to Azerbaijan have created new realities in the region.
"Azerbaijan's promoted peace agenda has entered an active phase. Azerbaijan has managed to create a real atmosphere of peace for our region, preventing the destructive impact of external forces on the region," the expert also said.
He emphasized that Azerbaijan is taking important steps to establish durable peace in the region.
"The Azerbaijani state doesn't and won't allow external forces to destabilize the situation in the region. Unfortunately, we witness a biased position towards Azerbaijan in some circles today. They cannot digest our country's independent policy in the region or the peaceful initiatives of our country. However, the past period has once again shown that no one can speak to Azerbaijan in the language of pressure, and this method will yield no results," Garayev noted.
The expert added that all the plans of these forces are doomed to fail.
