Avigdor Lieberman Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has
given an interview to Azerbaijan's Lider TV ahead of his visit to
Baku on Tuesday.
"On the whole, the 21st century has started as a century of a great
many conflicts and terror acts. The Karabakh conflict is a very
sensitive problem which cannot be discussed in public and the mass
media," Lieberman told Lider TV.
"Certainly, we respect the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. These
conflicts exist in most countries, but none of them have been settled.
The international organizations show an inadequate and two-faced
position in this regard. Unfortunately, the world community prefers
sweet lies," the minister said.
As for negotiations on the resolution of protracted conflicts,
Lieberman said, "We do not support ineffective talks. If there is no
effect, why continue these negotiations?"
Lieberman said that Azerbaijan is a serious and reliable partner
of Israel. He said these countries have many similar features and
bilateral relations between them are developing rapidly.
"The Azerbaijani diaspora is working on a high level in Israel and
the Jewish community is active in Azerbaijan. This proves the normal
level of relations between our peoples. There are good opportunities
for the development of political ties," the Israeli minister said.
He said that the main purpose of his visit to Azerbaijan on 9-11
February is the development of political and economic ties. The
talks in Baku will cover the creation of an intergovernmental economic
cooperation commission. Lieberman said that there are different spheres
for the development of Azerbaijani-Israeli relations. Israel also
intends to boost cooperation in the energy sector, the minister said.
