    Baku. Suleyman Farzaliyev - APA. Speaker of the Azerbaijani parliament
    Ogtay Asadov met with the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran
    Mahmoud Ahmadinejad within his visit to Iran.

    They discussed the development of relations between the two
    countries, APA reports quoting AzerTac news agency. Peace talks
    over the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno Karabakh conflict, ways of
    the development of economic relations between Azerbaijan and Iran,
    extension of cultural and humanitarian relations and other issues
    were also in the focus of attention.

    Ogtay Asadov said liberation of Azerbaijani lands occupied by the
    Armenian military forces would be key factor in long-term peace and
    stability in the region. He said the conflict could be solved by three
    ways. First way is implementation of the norms of international law
    as a result of efforts by the international organizations, second
    method of economic pressure and the regional countries have large
    opportunities in this field. The last way is the solution by use
    of force.

    Azerbaijan advocates for the peaceful solution to the conflict and
    continues its efforts in this direction.

    According to Iran's ISNA agency, Ahmadinejad said other factors had no
    influence on the Azerbaijani-Iranian relations. The Iranian president
    emphasized good prospects of development of relations between the two
    countries and said ceasing of visa regime for Azerbaijani travelers
    to Iran is an "expression of respect to the Azerbaijani people".

    The Azerbaijani parliament speaker met with the Iran's foreign
    minister Manuchehr Mottaki as well. According to the Iranian media,
    they discussed bilateral relations between the countries. The Iranian
    foreign minister said the third countries had no relation to the
    Azerbaijani-Iranian relations.

    Regional and bilateral relations, as well as inter-parliamentary
    relations were on agenda during the Asadov's meeting with the Iranian
    parliament speaker Ali Larijani. They talked about the historic
    friendship between Azerbaijani and Iranian people and discussed the
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

    The Azerbaijani parliament speaker met with the Secretary General of
    the Iran's Supreme Council of National Security Said Jalili.
