Ali Ahmadov Azerbaijan’s ruling party representative expects US to
assist to fair solution to Karabakh conflict.

The main expectation of Baku from Washington is demonstration
of unbiased approach to solving the Karabakh problem, said deputy
chairman of the ruling New Azerbaijan party Ali Ahmadov.

"The greatest of our expectations from the United States is
demonstration of a fair position in the Karabakh conflict resolution,
provision of significant support (to its settlement), and persuasion
of Azerbaijani people that America is not only a herald of justice,
but also a supporter of this", A. Ahmadov told journalists Thursday.

According to him, the failure to appoint the US Ambassador to
Azerbaijan for a long time is purely technical issue that does not
affect the development of comprehensive relations between Baku and
Washington like the US side assures.

Ahmadov also expressed hope that Prime Minister Erdogan of Turkey
during the upcoming talks with US. President Barack Obama will inform
him about general approach of Ankara and Baku to the resolution of
the Karabakh problem.

"Turkey and its current authorities demonstrate quite a sensitive
approach to the problem of Azerbaijan related to Nagorno Karabakh. In
this regard, the Turkish authorities openly spoke with the relevant
statements, and to this day they have shown and proved that they stand
behind their statements. I hope that it will be like that from now on
", said the representative of the ruling party of Azerbaijan.
