    CZECHIA SHOWS INTEREST IN DEVELOPMENT OF COOPERATION WITH AZERBAIJAN
    [March 18, 2005, 12:12:15]

    Speaker of the Milli Majlis (Parliament) Murtuz Alasgarov has met
    with visiting Azerbaijan Chairman of the Czech Parliament's Committee
    on Defense and Security Ian Vidim.

    Noting that Azerbaijan attaches particular importance to development
    of relations with European countries including Czechia, he said the
    two countries' parliamentarians fruitfully cooperate within
    international organizations. Mr. Alasgarov provided the guest with
    detailed information on legal, democratic reforms being implemented
    in Azerbaijan, the role of the country in the South Caucasus as well
    as the problems it faces. Dwelling on the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict
    over Nagorno-Karabakh, he showed on the map the occupied lands of
    Azerbaijan noting that these territories are used by the occupants
    for drug cultivation, and terrorist groups training. All these facts
    have been reflected in the documents of the US Department of State,
    he said. The Speaker reminded as well that the UN Security Council,
    Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and other
    international organizations had adopted a number of resolutions,
    which Armenia continues to ignore pursuing its aggressive policy
    against Azerbaijan. Our country stands for peaceful resolution of the
    conflict on the base of the norms and principle of the international
    law.

    Having thanked the Speaker of the Milli Majlis for the warm meeting
    and detailed information Chairman of the Committee on Defense and
    Security at the Czech Parliament Jan Vidim said his country was very
    interested in development of links with Azerbaijan. He noted that
    although 20% of Azerbaijan's territories were occupied and over
    million people became refugees and internally displaced, the progress
    gained in the country was very attractive for all. According to him,
    Czechia stands for peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict on the base of territorial integrity of states. We welcome
    the PACE January resolution hope the next meeting of the Presidents
    of Azerbaijan and Armenia will be a turning point in the peace
    process, Mr. Vidim said.
