Armenian army will taste the retreat: Azerbaijan

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has said that our only condition is that the Armenian Armed Forces evacuate our territory unconditionally, completely and immediately.

"If the Armenian government meets our demand for a complete withdrawal, the war and bloodshed will end and peace will prevail in the region," he said.
