    [January 12, 2005, 22:53:51]

    On January 12, Chairman of Milli Majlis (Azerbaijan Parliament)
    Murtuz Alaskarov has received the delegation of the German Marshal
    Fund of the United States.

    Warmly having welcomed the visitors, Mr. Alaskarov has told:
    `Existing between Azerbaijan and the USA friendly links develop on
    ascending. Due to efforts of heads of the states, our relations have
    reached the level of strategic partnership. The documents signed
    during visits of the national leader of Azerbaijan people Heydar
    Aliyev in the USA, have created a fine basis for development of our
    connections. After the meeting of the President of Azerbaijan Ilham
    Aliyev with the President of the USA George Bush carried out last
    year in Istanbul Summit of the NATO in development of our connections
    began a new stage. Our inter-parliamentary links extend and become
    stronger also. Due to the Memorandum signed during visits of the US
    congressman Kurt Weldon in our country in 2003-2004, have been
    created groups of friendship for development of relations between the
    Milli Majlis and the US Congress. I hope, your current visit renders
    positive influence on expansion of our relations and the further
    development of our connections.

    Then, Chairman of Milli Majlis has in detail informed visitors on the
    Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorny Karabakh conflict and has expressed hope
    that the USA as one of co-chairmen of the Minsk Group would increase
    the efforts directed on settlement of the given problem. He has noted
    that Azerbaijan takes active participation and in antiterrorist
    operations of the United States. The US Government should take into
    account it and undertake concerning the aggressor strict measures.

    Having expressed gratitude for warm reception and the detailed
    information, head of the delegation Mr. Ronald D. Asmus has told:
    `The German Marshal's Fund has prepared a project on creation in the
    USA the extensive information base connected to Azerbaijan, and to
    the beginning on the basis of the given information of wide
    discussions among the public. The purpose of visit to Azerbaijan will
    be to collect large information on this country, carry out exchange
    of views with representatives of the state, the Government and
