Baku. Lachin Sultanova-APA. The 118th session of the Council of Europe
Committee of Ministers was held in Strasbourg on May 7. Azerbaijani
Foreign Ministry's Press Service told APA that Foreign Minister Elmar
Mammadyarov had addressed the session.
He said that in the contemporary world intercultural and
interreligious dialogue had become one of the most topical issues and
drawn the interest and attention of the international community.
The minister mentioned that on December, 2008 Baku will host the
Informal Conference of the European Ministers of Culture with
representatives from the Council of Europe, ISESCO, and ALECSO, which
will focus on intercultural dialogue of civilizations.
Elmar Mammadyarov said at the Warsaw Summit of the Council of Europe,
the Heads of State and Government expressed their concern over the
unresolved conflicts that still affect certain parts of the European
continent.
The minister noted that the conflicts continued to endanger human
security, sustainable development and normal relations between the
countries of the affected regions and it was crucially important to
commit ourselves on achieving lasting solutions to these disputes.
`The position of Azerbaijan with regard to the solution of the
conflict with Armenia is simple: withdrawal of Armenian armed forces
from all occupied territories, reintegration of the Nagorno-Karabakh
region into the political, economic, legal and social systems of the
Republic of Azerbaijan, rehabilitation of the conflict-affected
territories, return of the displaced population to their places of
origin, re-establishment of favorable environment for peaceful
co-existence of both Armenian and Azerbaijani communities living in
peace and harmony, side-by-side within the Nagorno-Karabakh region of
the Republic of Azerbaijan', the minister said.
Elmar Mammadyarov said that all these could create necessary
conditions for the definition of the status of self-rule of the
Nagorno-Karabakh region within the Republic of Azerbaijan.
