Baku. (Interfax-Azerbaijan) – Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar
Mamedyarov has spoken for intensifying cooperation with Russia in
resisting terrorism.
“It is one of our main tasks to intensify cooperation because it is
virtually impossible to fight terrorism single-handedly,” he told
Interfax.
“The spread of the threat can be stooped only through joint efforts,”
he said.
“Relations between Azerbaijan and Russia are at a sufficiently good
level and advancing steadily,” Mamedyarov said.
Speaking of a settlement in Nagorno Karabakh he said: “Russia has very
good possibilities to promote the speedy settlement of our conflict
with Armenia.”
“Russia has declared many times and at different levels its support
for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan and we look forward to
Russia’s role inthe conflict settlement increasing,” he said.
