During the many years of negotiations, the mediators always showed some special approach to Lachin region, and Armenia as a whole considered the return of Lachin region to Azerbaijan unacceptable.

APA reports that President Ilham Aliyev said this when he received Masim Mammadov in connection with the appointment of the President's special representative in Lachin district, which is included in the Eastern Zangezur economic district.

"However, they did not intend to leave other regions.

Now, two and a half years after the war, it became clearer to everyone.

International mediators - the former Minsk group of the OSCE - actually tried to strengthen this occupation by conducting negotiations," said the head of state.
