major objective of her visit to Azerbaijan is to continue political
consultations started in Cairo, strengthen bilateral relations and
discuss proposals for development of cooperation.

the two countries within international organizations such as UN, OIC as
well as the international and regional issues. The sides touched upon
the negotiations over Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. It
was noted during the meeting that Armenia did not give up the policy
of occupation and remains committed to its non-constructive stance,
which does not allow settling the problem.

scientific, cultural, tourism, health, educational relations and
launching the direct flight between Cairo and Baku. Deputy Foreign
Ministers also discussed the prospects for cooperation within the
framework of the TRACECA project and issue of cooperation with the
