Armenia has occupied Azerbaijani territories, committed genocide in our lands, destroyed historical monuments. We try to resolve the conflict. We can implement serious works in this direction as domestic stability is strong in Azerbaijan. We are trying to resolve this problem within the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan'.
