/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Latvia’s stance in the Nagorno Karabakh issue
coincides with that of the European Union. Latvian President Vaira
Vike-Freiberga stated it at a news conference upon completion of talks
with Azeri President Ilham Aliyev in Baku. Violation of territorial
integrity of a sovereign state is “a factor that causes concern”,
she stated. At the same time Vaira Vike-Freiberga spoke in favor
of peaceful settlement of the conflict. “The conflict settlement
should base on territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, while NK can get
autonomy. This status is similar to those of autonomies available in
Europe,” I. Aliyev stated in his turn, reported RFE/RL.
