    Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliev, who paid a critical visit to
    Washington at a time when the nuclear row still continues, met US
    President George W. Bush yesterday.

    Regional security, the Upper Karabag (Karabagh) under Armenian
    occupation, energy issues, and the Iranian crisis were handled in the
    talk that took place at the White House.

    Bush guaranteed Aliyev the solving of the Iranian problem in
    diplomatic and peaceful ways, as Aliyev said Azerbaijan will not join
    a possible strike against Iran.

    Bush appreciates Baku's troop contribution in Iraq; stressing the
    importance that US ally Azerbaijan should remain fully briefed on
    developments in the region.

    Azeris are grateful for the United States' undertaking a leadership
    role to support energy security in the region, said Aliyev. "I am
    sure our strategic relationships will be reinforced in the future."

    According to Aliyev, President Bush and he mainly discussed the
    Armenian occupation in the Upper Karabag (Karabagh) in their talks.
