    KARABAKH CONFLICT TO BE CONSIDERED IN CONTEXT OF TRANSFORMATION OF BLACK SEA REGION

    Today, Azerbaijan
    May 30 2006

    Black Sea Forum for Dialog and Partnership will be held in Bucharest
    (Romania) June 4-5.

    As head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry's press office Vassily
    Filipchuk informs, participants of the forum are expected "to continue
    their dialog about democracy, stability and development started by a
    forum of the Commonwealth of Democratic Choice held in Kiev in December
    2005 and Vilnius conference 'Common Vision for Common Neighborhood'."

    The final goal of the process, according to Filipchuk, will be
    transformation of the Black Sea region into a Euro-integration space
    of interaction of sovereign states in the territory with active market
    economy systems, transparent and effective governmental bodies.

    "This process is also aimed at maintaining strong ties with the
    Euro-Atlantic community aimed at further extension and consolidation of
    the zone of freedom, security and stability in the Black Sea region,"
    he said.

    It is worth mentioning, within frameworks of the forum a meeting of
    Armenian President Robert Kocharyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham
    Aliyev is planned. By the way, Robert Kocharyan did not participate
    in the events in Kiev and Vilnius that anticipated the summit in
    Bucharest.

    It is also worth mentioning that neither Armenia nor Azerbaijan
    are states with assess to the Black Sea. Meanwhile, according to
    the Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan, there is a document
    at the negotiation table over Nagorno Karabakh settlement, and the
    presidents are expected to work it out. Last meeting of the Armenian
    and Azerbaijani presidents was held in Rambouillet and bore no positive
    results, though, became a stage to more intensified activity of the
    mediators in the settlement process, especially in the US.

    As independent Armenian experts believe, the fact of holding another
    Kocharyan-Aliyev meeting in Bucharest means that the Karabakh problem
    is being treated in the context of processes in the Black Sea and
    Caspian region on the whole, REGNUM reports.
