Ambassador Aghabayov highlighted the history of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, aggression and ethnic cleansing policy carried out by Armenia, genocides committed against the people of Azerbaijan, official Baku's stance on the settlement of the dispute, successful April battles and the reconstruction works carried out in the liberated Azerbaijani territories.
