Asadov noted that Azerbaijan attaches special attention to the development of relations with authoritative international organizations, including the OSCE. He expressed hope that the newly appointed special representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office for the South Caucasus will make every effort to deepen cooperation.

It was noted at the meeting that important steps are being taken for the development of the East-West as well as the North-South international transport corridors, where Azerbaijan is a participant.

Asadov spoke in detail about the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

“Unfortunately, during 25 years of negotiations to resolve the conflict, the OSCE Minsk Group has been unable to present a normal document and show a normal solution,” said Asadov. “The OSCE Minsk Group should increase its efforts to resolve the conflict.”

The ambassador said that he is sufficiently aware of the region, Azerbaijan, and the existing conflicts.

At the meeting, the sides noted the importance of expanding relations of Azerbaijan with authoritative international organizations, including the OSCE.
