ArmInfo. President of Estonia Toomas Hendrik Ilves recalled his
Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev of the necessity to prepare for
peace and not war.
As Estonian presidential press service reports, during the meeting held
on April 7, T. Ilves and I. Aliyev also discussed the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict. Estonia supports the resolution of the issues related to
Mountain-Karabakh and the adjacent areas through negotiations, and I
know that this is also your opinion in this matter. You need to prepare
for peace, not war, which means patience during the negotiations
in order to arrive at an agreement for a peaceful solution of the
Mountain-Karabakh issues, which would pave the way for an extensive
peace treaty, Estonian president said.
Heads of the two states also discussed energy projects. T. Ilves
emphasized the important role played by Azerbaijan in increasing
the energy security of the European Union as whole. "This is why we
highly appreciate Azerbaijan’s participation in projects such as the
Nabucco gas stream," said President Ilves.
