[Presenter] The visiting EU special representative in the South
Caucasus, Heikki Talvitie, has started his meetings. Today he met
Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission [CEC] Mazahir Panahov
and Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov.
[Talvitie, speaking to microphone in English with Azeri voice-over]
I briefed Araz Azimov on our discussions at the CEC. Then we talked
about the new neighbourhood policy, a report on Azerbaijan, Georgia
and Armenia which is being drawn up now and the ways of reflecting
reforms there.
We also discussed the [Karabakh] resolution process with the
involvement of the OSCE Minsk Group. In general, this is a very
difficult process. We should not be downbeat about the fact that we
haven't reached any results as quickly as we hoped to. The process
is under way and the two parties to the conflict are making serious
efforts in the two peoples' interests. I am optimistic about this.
