Azerbaijan's president met Armenia's prime minister on Tuesday in Switzerland's Davos, according to a statement by Azerbaijan's presidency.

It added that during their meeting the two leaders discussed the current situation regarding the solution process of Upper Karabakh problem.
 
Karabakh – a disputed territory between Azerbaijan and Armenia – broke away from Azerbaijan in 1991 with military support from neighboring Armenia, and a peace process has yet to be implemented.

The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe refers to the region as being occupied by Armenian forces.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
