According to the Azerbaijani Embassy in Mexico, the Ambassador spoke about the history of the conflict, noting that a fifth of the internationally recognized territories, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions, were occupied by Armenia for almost 30 years.

Talibov said that Azerbaijan has always supported the settlement of the conflict through negotiations. Still, Armenia has always ignored UN Security Council resolutions calling for the immediate liberation of the occupied territories. He noted that no results were achieved during the negotiations.

Since September 27, the Armenian armed forces began large-scale attacks on civilians, which caused numerous casualties among civilians.
