[July 27, 2006, 20:33:24]

Prime Minister Artur Rasizade met July 27 with delegation of the
United Nations World Food Program (WFP) led by its Executive Director
James Morris.

Mr. Rasizade highly appreciated the fact that such a top-ranking
international delegation visited here refugee camps, and witnessed
the people living, as a result of Armenia’s occupation of the
Azerbaijani lands, under extremely difficult conditions.

On the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, the Prime
Minister said Armenia has a non-constructive stance on this dispute.

Artur Rasizade thanked the UN World Food Program for providing aid to
refugees and IDPs in Azerbaijan.

Speaking of hard living conditions of those people, James Morris said
the international community should make all efforts to solve the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and help the refugees and IDPs return to
their homelands.

Mr. Morris said WFP highly values Azerbaijan’s efforts towards
improving conditions of refugees among whom are many children and old
people.

He pointed out that his organization will further continue
cooperation with Azerbaijan.
