The President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev’s speech attracted the attention of worldwide famous political analysts. Thus, political experts noted that speech and statements of President Ilham Aliyev will remain in the history of the Valdai Club.

Touching upon Azerbaijani President’s speech, Fyodor Lukyanov, one of the founders of Valdai International Discussion Club, member of Presidium of Russian International Affairs Council , moderator of the plenary session, Russian political analyst, noted that statement of Ilham Aliyev related to Nagorno Garabagh was inevitable respond to Pashinyan’s known statement: “Speeches of heads of states in the plenary session of Valdai Club showed that international policy is pressed by internal policy too much in the modern world.

Most political leaders do not try to solve international problems, but to achieve own goals within their countries. Armenian PM Pashinyan well understands the interior condition of the country. He demonstrated that he worked for an internal audience primarily by releasing known statement. Therefore, I think that President Ilham Aliyev's statement on Garabagh at the Valdai forum was an inevitable response to Pashinyan's known statement. "

And most importantly, he responded to the Prime Minister of Armenia."

Professor of Moscow State University of International Relations Sergey Luzyanin described President Ilham Aliyev's statement on Nagorno Garabagh as an official political position: "President Aliyev has once again voiced official Baku's position on a large political platform. One of the important points here was that the Azerbaijani president specially mentioned Russia's role in resolving the Garabagh conflict. It seems to me that the Garabagh problem was one of the main topics of discussion during the meeting between Aliyev and Putin."

President Ilham Aliyev has chosen the best platform to respond to the Armenian prime minister's delirium that "Garabagh is Armenia. Dot". If there is a notion of "diplomatic knockout" in political science, this answer was that…
