The President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev once again uses warmongering rhetoric.

"In today's conditions, when the norms of international law are grossly violated and applied selectively, Azerbaijan must be ready for any scenarios and therefore strengthens its armed forces," Aliyev said at a media forum in the occupied Armenian city of Shushi.

"To this end, as soon as the Karabakh war ended, we showed our great victory and immediately started implementing deep reforms in the field of defense," he continued, assuring that "today the Azerbaijani army is even stronger than three years ago."

"When the international law does not work, when the signature is not so important, only force is the guarantee of peace," says Aliyev, the president who endlessly violates his own commitments.

To give greater importance to his statements, Aliyev said that Azerbaijan and Turkey will continue rapprochement in the coming years. "We will definitely continue to develop relations in the coming years. We must stabilize the situation in the South Caucasus, achieve stable peace and ensure security. In the coming years, Azerbaijan and Turkey will play a greater role, and not only in our region.”
