    Azeri president, International Crisis Group leader discuss Karabakh

    Assa-Irada, Baku
    22 May 04

    Baku, 21 May: The president of the International Crisis Group, Gareth
    Evans, who was received by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev on 21
    May, briefed him on his meetings at the Cabinet of Ministers and the
    Foreign Ministry. He said that his organization is preparing a report
    on the Nagornyy Karabakh problem and that he has held meetings with
    the Georgian and Armenian leaderships over a solution to conflicts
    in the South Caucasus.

    President Ilham Aliyev approved of the organization's interest in the
    region and drew the guest's attention to the fact that Azerbaijan
    has about 1m refugees and displaced persons. Aliyev stressed the
    importance of the international public's close attention to the
    Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan.

    Aliyev recalled that the OSCE and other international organizations
    were involved in the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict settlement. He said
    if international organizations understand what is happening here, who
    the aggressor is, what the consequences of the aggression are and who
    keeps under occupation the lands that do not belong to them, then it
    will become known that Armenia is the aggressor which has flagrantly
    violated international legal norms, has occupied the Azerbaijani lands
    and keeps them under occupation. According to him, if the international
    public paid special attention to these points, it would be possible
    to achieve a quick solution and strengthen security in the region.
