By the way, today, the opportunities to compromise is shrinking because we're getting those territories back by force.

So they're losing time.

And if they behave reasonably, we can work on some forms off self governance.

We're not against it.

But frankly, speaking with this prime minister of Armenia, I don't think that any possibility for peace do you intend to fight for every square inch off Nagorno Karabakh on the surrounding seven territories.

I said from the very beginning that if passion in he personally not his foreign minister, he personally says Armenia, withdraw the troops from the three remaining regions which they have toe liberate on.

Give us a timetable.

We will stop immediately.

We don't want to continue this war.

We don't want.

We want to stop.

Are you saying that if the Armenian leadership agrees to vacate the territories outside of Nagorno Karabakh, you will stop?

You will not fight on exactly at the same time, this is not the whole, you know, issues on the negotiation table.

Of course, after that we will work on the return off Azerbaijani refugees to Nagorno Karabakh because before the war, the nineties.

They've been 40,000 Azerbaijani living in Nagorno Karabakh on the percentage of Azerbaijani population was 25%.

So they expelled them all on after that, committed ethnic cleansing on, then announced independence.

But the fear is that if you take control of Nagorno Karabakh by force, that you may do exactly the same.

There are very strong fear is being expressed by Armenia that there will be ethnic cleansing of their people.

This is groundless accusations.

With respect of the Armenian population of Nagorno Karabakh, they will continue to live there.

There.

Our citizens on I on many occasions expressed this position.

You have very recently said, and I'm quoting you here.

If they do not leave, we will chase them like dogs.

That's hardly the kind of statement that would make people feel safe.

Please be accurate with my statements.

What I said I meant those who continue to occupy our territories.

I meant Armenian military political leadership.

I meant so called authorities off Nagorno Karabakh.

This criminal gente so I meant them.

I didn't mean Armenian people.

So are you saying that you will give an absolute guarantee that there will be no ethnic cleansing off Armenian citizens.

Nagorno Karabakh?

Yes, We're not Armenians.

Do you accept that there is a danger now off a humanitarian catastrophe this winter in Nagorno Karabakh, you are closing in.

You could be in a position soon to besiege the area.

What is going to be the fate of the civilians inside?

That's the question.

Not to me.

To passion on, to stop.

And I say how to stop.

But you could cut them off.

If they're cut off by your forces, how can they survive?

We will take care of them.

We will take care of them.

Absolutely no doubt about that.

We will provide them with everything with food, with water, with everything but 90,000 of them approximately have already fled.

They don't seem to be comforted by these assurances.

According to our information, the rial population off those who lived in Nagorno Karabakh was from 60 to 70,000 people.

All those figures are highly exaggerated.

Therefore, I doubt that 90,000 could could flee because the maximum maximum 70.

We have had an attack in Nagorno Karabakh, a church which was shelled twice on the same day.

Now you have said that possibly it was a mistake.

You have said you will carry out an investigation.

What's the result of the investigation?

In order to investigate it, we have to be there to investigate.

I said many times either it was a mistake off our artillery or it was a deliberate provocation by Armenians themselves.

So you may have done it.

Who?

You?

Your sources may have done it.

It could have been by mistake on Lee because there was no military target.

Church was not among military targets, but could you have made a mistake twice in the same day?

It was hit twice.

Why not?

Have you seen the images off other by Johnny Mosques on the occupied territories?

They're all destroyed.

They keep picks in our mosques.

We do not attack civilians.

I like unlike them.

They attacked ganja with ballistic missiles, deliberately destroying the civilian compound.

Well, let me tell you, Mr President, I live for our own.

BBC colleagues have seen they were in Stepanakert in Nagorny Karabakh.

On the 1st, 2nd and 3rd of October, they witnessed random shelling of the town, including at an emergency services center on apartment block, destroyed as people tried to flee.

There was a drone overhead.

Shortly afterwards, more shelling nearby.

They characterized it as indiscriminate shelling off a town without clear military targets.

Now, this is not here.

Say this was witnessed and filmed by the BBC.

I doubt this witness witnessing.

I doubt it because it is.

When they were, they were their president to live.

So what?

They were there.

It doesn't mean anything that can we fake news?

We had military.

Why?

Why?

Why would that be fake news?

Why would any journalist going there design Because of the biased approach to the conflict?

Because off this black propaganda against Azerbaijan in international media.

So you cannot be guilty off any wrong.

Everything is everything is false news.

Absolutely.

There is evidence that you have used cluster munitions in civilian areas in the streets off Stepanakert, documented extensively by Human Rights Watch, photographs, videos, testimony from witnesses on.

They actually had the opportunity to go to the scene.

Now, why are you using cluster munitions which can be so imprecise in a civilian area?

We are not using them.

This is another fake news.

It is our media who uses the cluster bombs So everything is fake news off course.

Why not?
