BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 2. Every accord of such a historic agreement is important, said President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev at a joint press conference with President of Germany Frank-Walter Steinmeier, as he addressed an issue of a peace agreement with Armenia, Trend reports.
"As a matter of fact, each paragraph and each clause of such historic agreements is of great importance. During my conversation with President Steinmeier, I stated that Azerbaijan does not intend to overload this agreement, which is why it is a very concise agreement covering the main principles. Let me repeat that each issue is of serious importance. Experts, lawyers and representatives of the Ministries of Foreign Affairs of the two countries worked hard on this document, and I do believe that both sides demonstrated good will. Otherwise, this document would not have been created. This is the first. Secondly, there are circles in Armenia and in the West that want to blame Azerbaijan for the agreement not being signed. This is completely unfounded. Because, as I have already mentioned, this process was initiated by Azerbaijan. It was Azerbaijan that developed the main principles, and we have been involved in these negotiations in good faith. If we were not interested in signing the agreement, we could have put forward unrealistic conditions so that Armenia would not accept it," said President Ilham Aliyev.
