Azerbaijani Parliament delegation visits Slovenia

Parliament delegation members Fazil Mustafa, Gudrat Hasanguliyev, Jeyhun Osmanli headed by the Chairman of Azerbaijani delegation and Natig Aliyev, Minister for Industry and Energy of Azerbaijan Republic, visited Slovenia by the invitation of chairperson of the Foreign Relations Committee of the National Assembly of Slovenia Janja Klasinc. SIA reports that, during the first day of visit Azerbaijan delegation members visited the memorial of the Hero of Soviet Union Mehdi Huseynzade in Chepovan. Azerbaijan delegation was greeted by Ivan Basin, Chairman of Slovenia-Azerbaijan friendship group.

The members of the Foreign Relations Committee discussed the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, stressed the importance of speedy and efficient peaceful settlement of the conflict, unconditional withdrawal of the foreign military units from the occupied territories and the real restoration of full sovereignty of Azerbaijan within its internationally recognized borders as stated in the resolution passed at the 86th plenary session of the UN General Assembly on May 14, 2008, and reiterated in the resolutions and documents of the UN, EU, Council of Europe and other international organizations.

"Members of the delegation of the Azerbaijani Parliament led by Elkhan Suleymanov informed Slovenian parliamentarians about the situation in Nagorno Karabakh, the killing of 20 000 persons as a result of the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan in 1992-1994 and displacement of hundreds of thousands of people from Nagorno Karabakh and seven adjacent regions occupied by Armenia.

20-year diplomatic and mediation activities have not produced results up to now. The Nagorno Karabakh problem remains open and moreover, the frozen conflict can anytime turn into a crisis on dangerous scale.

It is clear that the status quo doesn’t contribute to the solution of the problem, can even worsen the situation and create obstacles for stability of the strategically important region and hinder the development of both EU partners involved in the conflict."
