Azerbaijan and Republic of Korea commit to resolutions of UN
Security Council and documents of OSCE Lisbon Summit, and stress the
necessity in peaceful resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict based
on sovereignty and territorial integrity of states, reportedly said
Azer Gasymov, head of press service with President’s Administration,
commenting the mutual declaration of Azeri and Korean presidents.

The declaration states stability in Azerbaijan contributing to peace
and security throughout South Caucasus. In a view of social-economic
reforms in Azerbaijan, Baku and Seoul stress their interest in
mutually beneficial and prolonged cooperation in such spheres as trade,
investments, power engineering, industry, science, IT and transport.

With the purpose of this document, the sides outline their readiness
to progress close cooperation for enterprises and business circles
through simplification of mutual relationships.

As per the Clause 9 of the document, Azerbaijan and Republic of Korea
claim their concern in development of transport infrastructure, which,
in turn, will boot the trade.

The special significance is stated by Clause 10 of the document, which
states that pipelines Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan and Baku-Tbilisi-Erzurum
and designed railroad Baku-Tbilisi-Ahalkalaki-Kars contribute to
progress of countries in the region.

Clause 13 says Azerbaijan Republic advocates peace on Korean
peninsula and supports the policy South Korean government implements
in South-East Asia.
