Azerbaijan's Strong Rebuke: Nagorno-Karabakh Tensions Flare

Baku's Furious Response to Moscow: Nagorno-Karabakh Dispute Escalates Azerbaijan has reacted angrily to comments made by a Russian official regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The Azerbaijani foreign ministry denounced the statement as inaccurate and misleading. This strong response came after the official described Nagorno-Karabakh as a disputed territory, a claim Azerbaijan vehemently rejects. The conflict has a long and complex history, with both sides holding strong claims to the region. The recent comments from Russia have significantly heightened tensions. The video shows footage of a downed Azerbaijani plane, which has further fueled the dispute. In a direct response, President Aliyev ordered the closure of the Russian House in Baku, a symbolic move that underscores the depth of the current crisis. "Such statements are unacceptable and demonstrate a lack of understanding of the historical facts," said a spokesperson for the Azerbaijani foreign ministry. President Aliyev's decision to boycott the Moscow parade is another significant demonstration of Azerbaijan's displeasure. This escalation of tensions between Azerbaijan and Russia raises concerns about the future stability of the region and the potential for further conflict.
