ArmInfo. Azerbaijan and Turkiye are not going to leave a territory of 29,800 square km to Armenia, political scientist Karen Igityan said.
"Azerbaijan has already opposed the Alma-Ata Declaration. Everything they say, that something needs to be given to Baku in order to preserve 29,800 sq. km, is a lie.
Azerbaijan and Trkiye are not going to leave this territory to Armenia," Igityan noted.
The expert noted that earlier the Azerbaijani media reported that, at the request of Baku, the phrases "frozen Nagorno-Karabakh conflict", "reference to the Alma-Ata Declaration in defining the border between Armenia" were excluded from the report of the Committee on Political Affairs, Human Rights and Democracy of the Euronest Parliamentary Assembly and Azerbaijan", "peace negotiations should be conducted only through the mediation of Brussels."
"Instead, the report says support for the peace process between Azerbaijan and Armenia and compliance with international law.
The map shows the territorial claims of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.
Present-day Azerbaijan considers itself the legal successor of this republic. And this is reflected in its constitution," Igityan noted, publishing a map of Baku's territorial claims to Armenia.
Earlier, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, during a conversation with residents of the border villages of Tavush, said that if Yerevan does not comply with Baku's demands to transfer a number of border villages to Azerbaijan, then a war will begin. And in case of war, Trkiye will support Azerbaijan.
