Aliyev complains about "attempts to create a rift" between Russia and Azerbaijan

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev laments that "someone is trying again" to sow discord in relations between Moscow and Baku. At the same time, Aliyev is convinced that the difficult period in relations between Azerbaijan and Russia is behind us, and they have fully normalized.

According to the Azerbaijani president, contacts are currently taking place between Baku and Moscow at various levels: government, through the co-chairs of the intergovernmental commission, and between the foreign policy ministries. He also noted that relations between Russia and Azerbaijan are extremely important, as they encompass traditional areas of interaction, such as transport, trade, and humanitarian affairs, as well as new ones that may emerge in the near future.

The day before, Aliyev called on Kyiv to "never agree to occupation" and to avoid any agreements with Russia that would require Ukraine to renounce its claims to certain territories. He also added that throughout the year, pressure had been exerted on Ukraine to cease hostilities, but "neither the people nor the government" had agreed to this. Aliyev emphasized that Azerbaijan has always supported and will continue to support "Ukraine's territorial integrity, its sovereignty, and the inviolability of its borders."

Commenting on Aliyev's frankly ambiguous statement, Dmitry Peskov, head of the Russian presidential press service, stated that the Kremlin adheres to a pragmatic approach in relations with Azerbaijan and does not consider the difference in assessments of the Ukrainian crisis a reason for the deterioration of bilateral ties.

And you kiss Zelyadurik and Khokhlota more.

The Mountain Jew and his elite are adopting the Sultan's policy of sitting on several chairs and counting money from different sources.
During the second stage of the 2026 war, Iranian friends warned this bastard of what his problems could turn into when fulfilling the wishes of the Zionist Bibi and the war criminal and pedophile from Washington, reminding him of the Talysh problem.
The Kremlin should not allow this turncoat into its chambers, holding equidistant meetings without state authority, in order to maintain dignity among the Russian people.

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev complains that "someone is again trying" to sow discord in relations between Moscow and Baku.

I wonder if these complaints have only recently emerged, given the hopes of Russia supplying Iran via the Azov Sea Port. It seems that way when concrete benefits are in the offing.

He has a new major project with Russia and Iran: a gas pipeline from Russia to Iran will run through Azerbaijan. Iran, of course, has plenty of its own gas, but the mountains—the gas fields—are in the south, and the demand is in the north of the country. It's not possible to build through the mountains. Azerbaijan is becoming a transit country and will earn money. The issue has already been fully agreed upon, so it's time to make some polite remarks.

[Mouse]

The only thing better than mountains is mountains...

That's great. Otherwise, maybe the grandson (or granddaughter) just decided to apply to MGIMO or Moscow State University.

[bayard]

Yes, he seems to be still young for adult grandchildren, although... Kurdish (and the Aliyev clan are Kurds, with a stable halachic line) blood is hot, he could have made it in time.

[Yujanin]

Have you already decided: is Aliyev a Kurd or a Jew?

[bayard]

Why should I decide this? For Azerbaijanis, he is Azerbaijani on his father's side (although he is Kurdish, of course, but everyone there has long been classified as Azerbaijani), and Jewish on his mother's and grandmother's side. And is that really bad? They just count Jews by their mother's side, and Azerbaijanis by their father's side. And everyone is happy.

[Yujanin]

Ilham Aliyev's maternal grandfather (Aliyev Aziz Mammad Kerim oglu) and grandmother (Leyla Jabbar kyzy (Abbaskhanova) Abbasova) were born in the Erivan Governorate to noble families. Given that only a small number of Jews lived in the Erivan Khanate, and marriages between Jews and Muslims were prohibited at the time, the claim that he was Jewish is false. As for his grandfather (Alirza) Karbalai Jafar oglu Aliyev) and grandmother (Izzet Jafargulu kyzy Aliyeva) Aliyev on the paternal side, then, unlike the Sunni Kurds, they were Shiite Muslims.

The photograph depicts Aliyev's maternal grandmother. The gold ornament on her chest is a crescent moon with a star, not a Star of David. In other words, Ilham Aliyev is a pure-blooded Azerbaijani Turk. For many years, by portraying Heydar Aliyev—and later his son—as non-Azerbaijanis, Armenians attempted to portray our people as lacking in any capacity. The outcome is well known. They underestimated us. That's why I would advise you to rely less on Armenian sources, lest you appear ignorant.

[bayard]

Well, these are also Iranian sources, but I certainly didn't mean to offend or upset you. The fact is that many Mountain Jews live in the Caucasus and Transcaucasia, who bear the names and surnames of the peoples that contain them, and quite a few of them are in leadership and positions of responsibility. And I don't think this is anything to be upset about; they've always lived there. They were engaged in trade and often intermarried with the local nobility. They are also an indigenous people of the region and have lived there for a very long time. According to official history, they appeared there earlier than the Turks under the Seljuks. And there have always been plenty of Kurds in Transcaucasia, especially in Nakhichevan. And the Kura didn't get its name for nothing. Incidentally, the Kurds and their origins are mentioned in the Avesta. The Turks appeared in Transcaucasia and northern Iran only under Seljuk, who was (before becoming a free Ataman) one of the Khazar Khagan's commanders, on the very eve of the defeat of Itil. He didn't make it to the war, so he left with his army to serve in Khorezm and was based in present-day Turkmenistan/Turkmenistan, and from there later ended up as mercenary troops, and then seized power in several principalities in Transcaucasia. But local peoples remained there too, so you have a multinational mix there. And the term "Azerbaijani" is not ethnic in nature, but territorial, which may be correct. It's like Americans, Volga people, Uralians, Siberians. Different ethnic groups live there too. So you are all Azerbaijanis.
By the way, I knew two Aliyevs in my youth, one was my classmate from military school (from Nakhichevan), the other was a colleague during my service in Azerbaijan.

[Yujanin]

Well, these are also Iranian sources, however, I certainly didn’t want to offend or upset you in any way.

On what basis do you claim that the content of your comments offends me or hurts my feelings? That's not true at all. I simply presented factual information in response to your baseless claims regarding the Aliyev family's origins.

But the local peoples remained there too, so you have a multinational mix there. And the term "Azerbaijanis" is not ethnic in nature, but territorial, which may be correct. It's like Americans, Volga residents, Uralians, Siberians. Different ethnic groups live there too. So you are all Azerbaijanis.

You're absolutely right in describing these processes, but it's important to understand: your logic applies to any people on Earth. Human history is a "multinational mix" everywhere. In every corner of the planet, ethnic groups have replaced one another for centuries, trading and intermingling. The British, French, Turks, and Iranians were formed in exactly the same way. Almost all modern nations are built around territory and a shared culture, not "sterile" genetics. So the dynamics you describe aren't unique to the Caucasus, but a universal law of history for the entire world.

I learned about the Aliyevs' origins and ethnicity from Karine Gevorgyan. Her surname is her married name, and she is of the Achaemenid dynasty. Her husband is from Iran and was friends and studied with the last Iranian shah in his youth. The territory of Arran was also formerly part of Iran, and Azerbaijan (a province) is located to the south with its capital in Tabriz. I also read about this in the book by your academician (of the Azerbaijani Academy of Sciences). I've already forgotten the name, but I read about it in the book. It's a good book, by the way, informative and interestingly written. I think it was published in 1990. I served in Alat, in the RIC of the air defense division.
And I don't think Kurdish descent is somehow flawed, any more than Jewish descent is according to the halachic law. My classmate Oktay Aliyev also once said, "We're all Azerbaijanis, but we're really Kurds." He was from Nakhichevan. I've met Lezgins, Transcaucasian Tatars, and Molokans there.
In Iran, since the time of the Avesta, great importance has been attached to the purity of blood and, in general, the meaning and law of blood. And rightly so. But there is no, and I have never heard of, any national or racial segregation or discrimination there. Basically, it's still an imperial tradition—everyone lives together, but everyone knows and remembers their roots. After all, Karine Gevorgyan's husband, despite his Armenian surname and roots, was a friend of the Iranian Shah's youth, which says a lot. The former and current Rahbar are Turkic-Azerbaijani. And this doesn't stop them from being true Iranians. So everything is fine with the Aliyev family. For you, Heydar is essentially the father and savior of the nation/people. Indeed, he essentially shaped Azerbaijan as it is, even during Soviet times. That is why he is a true Azerbaijani; this name is generalizing and, I hope, unifying.

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has once again spoken harshly about the country's Soviet past. At the 4th Shusha Global Media Forum, he stated that he views Azerbaijan's period as part of the Russian Empire and the USSR as a colonial era.

Well, just say it, I'm the first one who considers Russia an enemy.
The funniest thing is that this figure owes his stay in power to the USSR

[Peter1First]

Not long ago, I came across an article that clearly explained that all the Turks of Central Asia, Crimea, Anatolia, and Transcaucasia are primarily of Polovtsian (Kipchak) origin, and therefore there can be no talk of any historical antiquity, autochthony, or historical rights on their part (just like the Khokhls in Novorossiya). And just like the Banderites, they are trying to rewrite history to suit themselves, to add antiquity to themselves, and to keep silent about the many facts of genocide against more ancient and culturally advanced peoples who inhabited these lands not so long ago...

[Grancer81]

Were the Polovtsians/Kipchaks Turks?

[Peter1First]

There were. But there aren't many pure Turks left. They either actively absorbed the conquered peoples or were assimilated by stronger ones. For example, among the Kazakhs, the Turkic haplogroup accounts for only 2%; the rest was trampled by the Mongols...

[Yujanin]

All the Turks of Central Asia, Crimea, Anatolia and Transcaucasia are mainly of Polovtsian origin /Kipchaks/, therefore there can be no talk of any historical antiquity, autochthony or historical rights on their part

In fact, the Kipchaks possess both deep historical antiquity and indigenousness to certain geographic regions. This is confirmed by Chinese, Arab-Persian, and Byzantine sources.

[Peter1First]

Before the Kipchaks, there were the Scythians, Sarmatians, Khazars, and finally the Pechenegs. And in those areas where they were indigenous, not a trace of them remains...

And he can transmit rays of light and support to his fleet and the citizens of the drowned greenbobs under the leadership of a foggy Albion, all honestly, without deception from the wizard in charge, Comrade Aliyev, under the protectorate of Turkey, which is here, and yet they still need to extend branches to Persia...

The legally elected president of Azerbaijan could become illegitimate at Ursula's whim. Easy. The EU has seen plenty of this. Where would he run then—to London?

Aliyev complains about "attempts to create a rift" between Russia and Azerbaijan

So he doesn't consider his actions and calls to the Skakuas to be "attempts to sow discord"?
What an impudent fellow! I should give you a lash!!!

[Karelian]

Has everything returned to normal? Was he promised not to "take out" Azerbaijani-owned gas stations in Ukraine?

[novel66]

does not consider the difference in assessments of the Ukrainian crisis as a reason for the deterioration of bilateral relations.

This is low social responsibility.

[spectr]

Or, as Zadornov puts it, "it's all about the money." If Azerbaijan has become a "buy-in" for sanctions, then Aliyev will be forgiven a lot.

He spoiled our Nosaty with his apologies...

Freak, let him be friends with the Nazis, who don’t even consider Azerbaijanis to be people.

[Bayun]

The Aliyevs betrayed neither the USSR nor Azerbaijan. The Russians would be better off asking questions of their own powerful leaders, who betrayed the USSR and are now ready to betray Russia again.

union Betrayed Moscow-Kyiv-Minsk. And only the Bulbas are still escaping God's punishment.

[Bayun]

It's incorrect, but the website doesn't offer any other explanation. Perhaps, along with Lukashenko, there are two more Righteous Men in Belarus, because of whom God spares them. This is no joke, no humor.

[Comrade Kim]

Aliyev, not even Netanyahu’s wife, but his mistress, stands obsequiously by the bed, with a candle in her hands shaking with lust, while Netanyahu has Erdogan, his legal wife.
A Chabad lackey, that's who Aliyev is.
He loves to torture and kill Russian people, especially military personnel.
Why is everything forgiven to him?
If anyone tries to condemn his hatred of Russia and Russians, the powerful diaspora will grind him into dust!

[Fitter65]

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev complains that "someone is again trying" to sow discord in relations between Moscow and Baku.

Moreover, this “someone” is called Ilham Aliyev.

[aszzz888]

At the same time, Aliyev is convinced that the difficult period in relations between Azerbaijan and Russia is behind us and that they have completely normalized.

Are you really "convinced"? Something like that. deep doubts I have this regarding...

[gribanov.c]

It would have been better if he had said it this way: Ukraine is part of Russia, "Ukrainians" are Russians; and Azerbaijanis should live in Azerbaijan and not create a diaspora (organized crime group) in Russia, and leave Russia every single one of them, because visiting is nice, but home is best.

[Svarog5570]

The two-faced Janus wants to bow down to the mattress-ridden Gayrope and not miss out on his profit from the pipeline to Iran, while our government, as always, will wipe its nose and continue to sniffle with concern, its handkerchief already soaked in snot, and it's still being used to wipe its face.

[Major Whirlwind]

Essentially, it doesn't matter what Aliyev says; he has his own interests. What matters is how we respond, and most importantly, how we react to the chatter and actions of our friends and partners based on Russia's interests. I'm just haunted by a nagging doubt that our desires don't match our capabilities to properly respond to such actions or statements. So we're forced to try to put a good face on things. But from the outside, it looks quite unsightly and offensive. They've driven the country to this extreme.

So Aliyev needs to stop sitting on two chairs. Our people, as usual, are still behaving civilly with him. Unfortunately.
