/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Participation of Armenia’s representatives in
the work of the second preparatory conference of the Enhancing
Security and Transport in the OSCE Zone 14th economic forum does
not display economic cooperation between Armenia and Azerbaijan,
Azeri Vice-Premier Abid Sharifov stated at a news conference in Baku
March 16. “The event is organized by the OSCE and we take part in it
as an organization member,” Sharifov said, remarking that Azeri and
Armenian representatives participate in various international events,
either in Baku, Yerevan or other cities of the world. “Cooperation with
an occupant country cannot be the point,” he emphasized. It should be
remarked that three representatives of Armenia take part in the two-day
conference. In Sharifov’s words, the second preparatory conference
in Baku is of high importance. “A conference of that scale is held
in Baku for the first time and the event is one of three preparatory
measures within the OSCE 14th economic forum, which is scheduled in
Prague this May,” he reported.
