Azerbaijan, Iran discuss development of interparliamentary ties
Moscow, April 19, AZERTAC
Azerbaijan and Iran have explored ways of developing interparliamentary relations as Speaker of Azerbaijan`s Parliament Ogtay Asadov met with Iranian counterpart Ali Larijani on the sidelines of the first consultative meeting of Eurasia parliament speakers in Moscow.
Mr. Asadov hailed the level of relations between the two countries, and noted that there were prospects for rapid development of all-round cooperation. He informed the Iranian official on the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, and stressed “the Armenian side subjects to fire the villages of Azerbaijan every day.”
“Despite the efforts of the international mediators, the conflict didn`t find its settlement yet,” he added.
Mr. Larijani, in turn, hailed the economic, political and cultural relations between the two countries, as well as the results of the meetings among Azerbaijani, Iranian and Russian, as well as Azerbaijani, Iranian and Turkish foreign ministers.
