The Armenian delegation from Karabakh arrived in the town of Yevlakh for talks, Azerbaijan's presidency said.
Under the ceasefire agreement, as outlined by Azerbaijan, breakaway Armenian forces must disband and disarm, and the region will be integrated as part of Azerbaijan.
Aliyev said that "war criminals" had tried to poison the brains of 120,000 Karabakh Armenians, who, he said, would now live in paradise and have their religious and cultural rights respected.
But thousands of Armenians massed at the airport in Stepanakert, the capital of Karabakh known as Khankendi by Azeris.
Known as Artsakh by Armenians, the territory is internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan, which is mainly Muslim, but its inhabitants are predominantly ethnic Armenians, who are Christians.
