ArmInfo. Azerbaijan agrees to the conduct of a conference of
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with the participation of Armenian MPs,
the first vice speaker of the Parliament of Azerbaijan, the chairman
of the parliamentary safety and defense committee Ziyafer Askerov.

Trend news agency (Baku) reports that last week the chairman of PACE
Ad Hoc Committee on Nagorno-Karabakh Lord Russel Johnston visited
Azerbaijan and Armenia to discuss the possibility of conduct of
a conference with the participation of Armenian and Azeri MPs in
Strasbourg in Apr 2008.

"At the same time, we object to bilateral cooperation with Armenia
prior to the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict," Askerov
said. "We want such meetings to give real results. We have taken part
in a number of such events but none of them have given tangible results
so far. We also want international organizations to show a serious
approach to the fulfillment of PACE resolution on Nagorno-Karabakh
and to exert pressure on Armenia in the matter," Askerov said.
