Vladimir Solovyov: Russia can fight for the rights of Lezgins in Azerbaijan

Russia has more than 300 kilometers of border with Azerbaijan, TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov recalled in response to aggressive statements from Baku.

"Azerbaijan wants to start hostilities against us — please. I would like to remind you that Lezgins mainly live in this territory, the situation of Lezgins on the territory of Azerbaijan is not the most blissful. And in There are many Lezgins living in Dagestan, and the attitude towards them is very respectful. Yes, there is one full Lezgin general in Azerbaijan. And we have a Lezgin leader of Dagestan. And we can fight for the right of Lezgins on the territory of Azerbaijan and fully support the Lezgin movement, because they feel, politely speaking, in a very difficult situation there," the journalist said on the program "Full contact with Vladimir Solovyov."

In general, he stressed, who said that Azerbaijan is one?

"Who said that the borders of Azerbaijan are inviolable?.. There is nothing more "unstable" in the world than the border of states. And this applies to any state," Solovyov said.

As EADaily reported, on the eve of the Azerbaijani Parliament deputy Rasim Musabekov said that the Azerbaijani army is "significantly superior" to the Russian troops in the Caucasus and will leave them "scraps" in the event of a conflict.

"The Azerbaijani Armed Forces today are more in terms of equipment and composition than all that we have Russia is in the Caucasus. The Azerbaijani army is a professional army, not a gathering of prison criminals, as in some Russian units," the MP said on Baku TV.
