"Nobody will manage to change Azerbaijan`s borders forcibly", Azeri minister of foreign affairs Elmar Mammadyarov said in an interview to Al-Rai newspaper, Kuwait.
The minister emphasized that official Baku is ready to hold negotiations on granting a high degree of autonomy to Nagorno-Karabakh.
"This is the Azerbaijan`s stance, which is supported by the international community. Nobody will succeed in changing the borders of Azerbaijan forcibly", the minister said.
Mammadyarov expressed regret over non-compliance with UN Security Council`s and General Assembly`s resolutions on Nagorno-Karabakh.
"Some 20 percent of the Azerbaijani territories are under the Armenian occupation, and over one million Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons. All international organizations and large states are making efforts to release Azerbaijani territories. We believe the occupied territories will be returned, hopefully, through diplomatic means".
