Japan supports fair settlement of Garabagh conflict

Japan supports a fair settlement of the Upper Garabagh conflict,
Japanese Senior Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs Ichiro Aisawa said
in a Friday meeting with Parliament Speaker Murtuz Alasgarov.
Alasgarov informed the Japanese official of the Garabagh conflict,
pointing out the fruitless activity of the OSCE Minsk Group. He also
said the Azeri government attaches great importance to collaborating
with Japan.
Aisawa, in turn, said bilateral relations will further strengthen
with the upcoming opening of Azerbaijan’s embassy in Tokyo.*
