Baku. Elnur Mammadli - APA. "Both Nagorno Karabakh and Kosovo
problem should be solved basing on the norms and principles of the
international law," Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov said
at the press conference after meeting with his Serbian counterpart.
He said the two problems had been discussed at the meeting.
"Speaking of the norms of the international law we support the
principle of territorial integrity, sovereignty and inviolability of
the borders recognized on the international level. We came to the
conclusion that the borders of both countries should be admitted
within the borders recognized upon accession to the UN," he said.
Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremic said peace and stability is very
important in the 21st century. The Minister noted that the problem
of Kosovo might harm the territorial integrity of all countries.
"That's why Serbian government appealed to the International Court
of Justice. Thanks to Azerbaijan's support in the voting in the
UN General Assembly we won this issue. The court is considering
whether the declaration of independence was adopted in line with the
Statute or not. We consider that the court will pass a decision that
no regime can unilaterally declare its independence in the country
having internationally recognized borders," he said.
