"Azerbaijan is Poland’s strategic ally and the latter considers
assistance to Azerbaijan in the integration with European structures
important in its external policy".

Day.Az reports with reference to AzerTaj, that the due announcement was
made by President of Poland Lekh Kachinskiy during a press conference
in Poland.

He noted that the resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict must base
on the norms of international law.

"Nagorno Karabakh is part of Azerbaijan under the international law and
we support this position though we maintain relations with Armenia,
as well. We had interesting discussions during which we touched upon
different topics. We spoke of energy policy, discussed situation
in friendly countries, which are of natural interest for Poland",
Kachinskiy noted.

He said he is aware that Azerbaijan has large oil and natural gas
reserves.

He announced that it is too important for Poland and they will further
develop discussions of this topic with President.

He said Azerbaijan attained freedom in the early 20th century and
the people of Azerbaijan have been struggling for sovereignty and
independence throughout the history.
