Extract from Trend’s interview with the head of the Foreign Relations
Department at the Executive Administration of Azerbaijani President,
Novruz Mammadov.

– A new President has recently been elected in France, which is
a co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group on peaceful settlement of
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. How do you view the cooperation prospects
between Azerbaijan and France under Nicola Sarcozy rule?

– I believe the current and future relationships between Azerbaijan and
France have been built on a fundamental basis. Different viewpoints
and forecasts are voiced now as it was on the eve of the elections,
but the main line of the relationships between two countries and
nations will remain unchanged. The new administration of Sarcozy
proves the fact another time. Moreover, we should not expect any
revolutionary changes from Sarcozy as well.
