Azerbaijani ambassador to Israel Hayom: Armenians falsely accusing us of ethnic cleansing

Mukhtar Mammadov, the first-ever ambassador to the Jewish state, claims that the recent operation in Nagorno-Karabakh was in self defense. "We had 10,000 illegal Armenian soldiers on our territory, would Israel have accepted that?" He also makes it clear Israel-Azerbaijan relations "not directed at Iran," although he calls on all parties to fulfill their commitments under the agreements with the IAEA.
