    On July 7, the two-day international seminar of NATO "Implementation
    of Partner Action Plan against terrorism (PAP-T): participation
    and contribution of partner-countries to operations of NATO against
    terrorism" was completed in Baku. The meeting brought together 50
    representatives from 32 countries around the world, Trend reports
    with reference to the public relations center of the National Security
    Ministry of Azerbaijan.

    The minister of national security of Azerbaijan lieutenant-general
    Eldar Mahmudov delivered a speech at the conference, noting that the
    effective cooperation between NATO and Azerbaijan has been continuing
    for more than 12 years. Besides, he pointed out that the appearance
    of Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev at the final session of NATO
    Parliamentary Assembly is the indicator of the strengthening and
    expansion of the cooperation of sides.

    Mahmudov highly assessed the Individual Cooperation Action Plan of
    Azerbaijan and NATO, which was confirmed according to the order of
    Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev dated August 3, 2005. Irrespective

    Azerbaijan, social-economic development allows to strengthen the
    role of official Baku in the regional and international arena. All
    these permitted to strengthen the position of Baku in the settlement

    understand the real situation, told Mahmudov.

    active participant of the antiterrorism coalition, and the position
    of official Baku in this process was highly assessed.
