    Europe for Azerbaijan Tony Lloyd and Andres Herkel, press service of
    the Ministry said.

    Mr. Mammadyarov spoke of the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over
    Nagorno-Karabakh, describing it as Azerbaijan's major problem, and
    saying the dispute poses a serious threat to the entire region.

    He said Armenia, which is a member of the Council of Europe, occupied
    twenty percent of Azerbaijan's territory forcing about million of
    Azerbaijanis to flee their homelands.

    "The international community should warn Armenia that a country,
    which tries to become a part of Europe, should refrain from such acts
    and withdraw its forces from Azerbaijan", the Azeri Minister noted.

    Elmar Mammadyarov also spoke of Azerbaijan's integration into European
    and Euroatlantic structures.

    The guests stressed the need to find a quick solution to the
    Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict, stressing it is important to both sides.
