    Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has described as positive the
    discussions held at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
    Europe [PACE] on the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict. He said this at a
    meeting with PACE rapporteur on political prisoners Malcolm Bruce on
    15 March. The OSCE Minsk Group has a direct mandate to settle the
    conflict, he added. Aliyev simultaneously urged international
    organizations, including the Council of Europe, to pay more attention
    to the problem. Aliyev expressed confidence that the discussions held
    at the PACE and the adopted documents will play an important role in
    resolving the conflict.

    Bruce described the latest [PACE] report on the Nagornyy Karabakh
    conflict as fair and said that President Aliyev's speech at the PACE
    [in 2004] played a very important role in the adoption of the
    aforesaid document. The European MPs highly assessed the opinions
    reflected in the speech on the fulfilment of Azerbaijan's commitments
    to the organization and on the resolution of the conflict, Bruce
    added.
