According to him, Azerbaijan will achieve this by consistent policiesx and peacefully: 'All objective reasons show that this day will come.x Just each of us has to bring this day closer. How? We must becomex even stronger. In today's world the concept of 'international law,'x it can be said, has failed. Now the main factor is strength. This isx true.x We live in the real world. So we have to become even stronger,x to create a more powerful army. The economy should become strongerx and development should go faster. Note that even in the crisis yearsx the country's population is gradually increasing and will continue tox grow. After a few years, the population of Azerbaijan will reach 10x million. This trend continues. In the coming years, growth will bex even higher,' Azeri Daily quotes Aliyev as saying. x

We will return tox our lands. This requires a well-planned strategy, concept. We havex these. Our strategic policy is defined, and we will take tacticalx steps every year.
xFirst, it is a historical question. Second, a fairx question.x We stand for justice and the need to restore ourx territorial integrity. We can never allow a second Armenian state tox be created on our soil. On the contrary, we must try and will try tox increase the power of our country, to strengthen it, and to achievex this goal. The society is united on this and all other issues. Ourx successful development is a reality. We achieve this development,x even in the crisis years,' Azeri Daily quotes the Azeri President asx saying.x
