The head of the Azerbaijani-Iranian inter-parliamentary friendship
group, Seyyid Kazim Mousavi, met Milli Majlis Chairman Ogtay Asadov
yesterday.
Mousavi told Ogtay Asadov, 'We will have several meetings to discuss
how to expand relations between the two countries' legislative bodies.'
On the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Mousavi said his country thought the
dispute should be settled on the basis of Azerbaijan's territorial
integrity. 'We consider that regional countries are capable of
resolving the conflict without any external interference,' he said.
Asadov said reciprocal visits helped to 'boost our neighbourly and
friendly relationship'.
He also stressed the role of the two countries' leaders in the
development of bilateral cooperation. Asadov said that more than 90
documents signed during the presidents' visits had created the legal
basis to strengthen bilateral cooperation.
Touching upon inter-parliamentary ties, Asadov recalled his recent
visit to Iran, and stressed the importance of the meetings held there.
Azerbaijan is keen on cooperation with Iran, and praises Tehran's
efforts to contribute to settling the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the
Speaker said. He also thanked the Iranian government for supporting
Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.
Seyyid Kazim Mousavi, in turn, said his country attached importance
to enhancing cooperation with Azerbaijan in the political, economic,
humanitarian, cultural and education spheres.
On the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, he said Iran unswervingly backed
Azerbaijan's territorial integrity, and thought that the dispute
should be settled peacefully.
Present at the meeting were the head of the Milli Majlis
administration, Safa Mirzayev, the head of the working group on
Iranian-Azerbaijani inter-parliamentary ties, Eldar Ibrahimov, and
the Iranian ambassador to Azerbaijan, Mohammad Baqer Bahrami.
