Azeri official says Sarkozy visit important for Karabakh settlement
An Azerbaijani high-ranking official has said the French president's
visit to the South Caucasus on 6-7 October is important for the
Nagornyy Karabakh settlement.
"We think that [Nicolas Sarkozy's] visit to the South Caucasus is very
significant. It is significant first of all because France is a
co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, it is a country which is directly
involved in the settlement of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over
Nagornyy Karabakh, and France has contributed, both within the Minsk
Group and individually, to efforts which Russia has been making for a
long time to settle this issue [conflict]," Ali Hasanov, head of the
public and political department under the Azerbaijani Presidential
Administration, said in remarks aired by commercial Azad Azarbaycan TV
