Armenia that has occupied Azerbaijani territory ignores international
organizations’ decisions and resolutions on the Nagorno-Karabakh,
Azerbaijani Parliamentary Speaker Ogtay Asadov said at a meeting with
the Indonesian delegation headed by Deputy Chairman of the House of
Representatives of Indonesia Anung Vibo on April 21.
"The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is a painful problem for a developing
Azerbaijan. Armenia, being the aggressor, continues to ignore
international organizations’ decisions and resolutions on the issue.
We stand for a solution to the problem within international legal
norms," Asadov said.
Asadov praised Indonesia’s support for the right position of Azerbaijan
in the discussions of this problem within international organizations.
"The meeting also noted that so far the two countries have signed five
documents and more than 20 documents are under development. Azerbaijan
considers it important to develop relations with this country in
politics, economy, culture and humanitarian relations. The sides
noted extensive development potential in the economic field between
the rich oil and gas fields of Azerbaijan and Indonesia," the press
service reported.
Asadov said the inter-parliamentary relations play a special role in
the development of cooperation between the two states.
"Working groups on inter-parliamentary relations with 70 countries
around the world operate in the Azerbaijani parliament. There is
also a group for cooperation with the Indonesian legislature. Our
deputies met in international institutions, to exchange experiences
and information," he added.
Noting the importance of the meetings, Vibo said that his country had
a serious interest in cooperation with Azerbaijan in various spheres.
He said Indonesia that once suffered from separatism, well aware of
Azerbaijan’s problem related to the Nagorno-Karabakh, and supports
the position of the country and territorial integrity in unambiguous
manner.
The sides exchanged views on issues of inter-parliamentary relations,
prospects of cooperation in economic, cultural and humanitarian
spheres, solutions to regional conflicts and other issues of mutual
interest.
