Baku, April 21, AssA-Irada — Moldova supports Azerbaijan’s position
on the Upper Garabagh conflict.
The issue was in focus at a meeting of President Ilham Aliyev with
his Moldovan counterpart Vladimir Voronin in Kishinev on Thursday.
Voronin said Moldova supports all steps by Baku at restoring its
territorial integrity within international organizations.

the organization’s activity, expressing confidence that it will
become a strong regional organization in the future. The integration
of Azerbaijan and Moldova into the European Union will further
accelerate. Suitable environment has been created for the economic
and trade relations between the two countries, they said.*
