President: "The Armenian population living in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan are our citizens"

The Armenian population living in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan are our citizens, and we will not discuss with any international center how to regulate their lives.

Qazet.az reports that President Ilham Aliyev expressed this opinion in his speech at the Azerbaijan National Urban Development Forum held in Aghdam.

Pointing out that Karabakh is the land of Azerbaijan, the head of state said:

"The second Karabakh war proved this. Even during the years of occupation, no country in the world, including Armenia, recognized this regime."
