AZERBAIJAN HOPES FOR PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT OF KARABAKH
PROBLEM

BAKU, DECEMBER 5, ARMENPRESS: Azerbaijan hopes for
a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, Azerbaijani foreign minister Elmar
Mammadyarov said when addressing an audience at
Norway’s Foreign Policy Institute.
‘I am sure that a peaceful settlement option will
be found,’ he said in response to a question whether
Azerbaijan’s increased military budget means that Baku
wants to use force to win Nagorno-Karabakh back.
Azerbaijani foreign minister is on an official
visit to Norway, where he has already held a series of
meetings with its top officials, including top
executive of Norway’s Statoil company.
He will stay in Norway until December 7, Trend news
agency said.
