"Armenia is interested in establishing ties with Azerbaijan,"
Azerbaijani member of parliament Asaf Hajiyev said commenting on
a possible visit by Azerbaijani judokas to Yerevan to attend the
European Judo Championships for Junior.

"I think Armenia will provide security of Azerbaijan’s delegation,"
he said.

Azerisport.com reported Azerbaijani judo team will make a trip to
Yerevan to attend the championships. Azerbaijani and Armenian relevant
federations have discussed this issue in Rotterdam.

Armenia agreed to provide security of Azerbaijan’s team. European Judo
Championships for Junior will be held in Yerevan on September 9-14.

"Armenians are interested in establishing relations with Azerbaijan,
so they will do everything possible to ensure that our athletes will
go to Yerevan," he added.

"Armenia’s goal is to cooperate with Azerbaijan by any means and
establish relations with us outside the Karabakh issue. Azerbaijan
will never agree to this until occupied Azerbaijani territories are
returned," Hajiyev said.
