Armenian and Czech Foreign Ministers Edward Nalbandian and Lubomír Zaorálek discussed a wide range of issues on bilateral agenda, including the political dialogue, cooperation within international organizations, the legal framework, trade and economic relations.

The parties attached importance to the reciprocal visits and development of inter-parliamentary ties.

Speaking at a press conference after the meeting, Minister Nalbandian referred to the process of settlement of the Karabakh conflict.

He said “Azerbaijan uses the Nagorno Karabakh conflict to justify its authoritarian system and violation of human rights.”

He added, however, that the world is sick of Azerbaijan’s use of oil dollars. “A vivid example was a recent resolution adopted by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, where Azerbaijan failed,” he said.

“I think it’s time for Azerbaijan to return from the virtual world of oil and khavier to reality,” Nalbandian stated.
