    MUNICH CONFERENCE DISCUSSES CAUCASUS

    Nagorno-Karabakh and the energy security of the EU were two of
    the main topics at the 50th Munich Security Conference. Political
    analyst Rovshan Ibragimov says that the foreign policy of Azerbaijan
    has diversified in the past years. He notes that it was a temporary
    member of the UNSC until 2014, adding that Azerbaijan is one of the
    key components of European energy security.

    The expert notes that Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov
    met OSCE Secretary General Lamberto Zannier, US Assistant Secretary of
    State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland, the foreign
    minister of Bosnia and Herzegovina and a representative of Germany's
    ZDF. Ibragimov says that Azerbaijan diversifies state, political and
    economic contacts with public diplomacy.

    He expresses optimism about settling the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    The expert points out that the Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign
    ministers achieved no success at talks in Paris, though negotiations
    renewed. A presidential meeting is planned.

    Ibragimov concluded that the Munich Conference was a platform where
    Azerbaijan wanted to participate as a subject of interregional and
    global political processes.
