Cooperation between Armenia and Azerbaijan is impossible unless
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is resolved, Azerbaijani Minister of
Agriculture Ismet Abbasov told reporters on the sidelines of UN (FAO)
Regional Conference for Europe and Central Asia, which kicked off in
Marriott hotel, Yerevan, Armenia, on May 13.
The Minister said that despite the popular discontent in Azerbaijan,
his presence at the current event is importance, since the next
conference will be held in Baku in 2012.
Mr. Abbasov said that the "poverty in his country has reduced by 4
times and now makes 10-11% of the population."
At the journalists' request, the Azerbaijani Minister told that he was
born in Yerevan and went to school here. "I last visited Armenia in
December 1987. I missed Armenia during these years. With permission of
President Ilham Aliyev, I visited Vardenis where my relatives used to
live for many years. I think the photographs I took will be a great
surprise for them," Abbasov said in Armenian.
