Afghanistan and Iraq," the Minister said.
Mr.Abiyev said the situation is tense in the South Caucasus, "The
Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict has not been solved yet. The activity of

satisfying. We want the conflict to be resolved in the frames of
international legal norms and Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and
demand Armenian occupying forces to withdraw from the occupied
territories. The Armenian side is taking a destructive position
regarding the resolution of the conflict. Taking this into account,
Azerbaijan has to take adequate measures."

participation in the fight against global terrorism.
"We highly appreciate Azerbaijani Armed Forces units serving together
with US Army in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kosovo, and we consider this as
a great success of the Azerbaijani people. You have got wonderful

direction and we are ready to help you in this way. We believe
