"For nearly 30 years, this country has been led by proponents of fascist ideology, who have shaped it in their own image. Fascism must be eradicated, and it will be done either by the leadership of Armenia or by us. We have no other option," said Aliyev.
Aliyev also accused Armenia of allegedly being "a source of threat to the region." According to him, "Armenia must immediately stop arming itself," and "France and other countries supplying it with weapons must cancel these contracts."
"Weapons already delivered to Armenia must be returned. This is our condition," Aliyev emphasized.
Armenia has not yet commented on the statement made by the Azerbaijani president.
