Another statement typical of Azerbaijan.

Davit Babayan, Spokesperson of the President of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR; Artsakh), commented the aforesaid. He stated this speaking to Armenian News-NEWS.am, and with respect to Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev’s statement made during the official opening of the Azerbaijani navy base.

“The [Azerbaijan] naval fleet’s participation during ‘the liberation of [Nagorno-]Karabakh’ is not too clear,” noted Babayan. “Rather, it may be a about the [Azerbaijan] navy’s participation during defense, when the Artsakh army reaches all the way to the Caspian Sea.”

As for the waving of the Azerbaijani flag in the NKR capital city of Stepanakert and the city of Shushi, the Artsakh President’s spokesperson noted that the shortest way for this is Azerbaijan’s recognition of the NKR.

“When Azerbaijan recognizes the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, the flag can wave on its embassy [in the NKR],” said Davit Babayan.
