BAKU, March 28 (Itar-Tass) - Russia and Azerbaijan have strategic,
confidential and partnership relations, Federation Council Speaker
Sergei Mironov told, when the parliamentary delegation began its
visit to Azerbaijan.
"Trustful personal relations between the Russian and Azerbaijani
presidents are a pledge of continuity in the two countries' policies
after 2008," he said.
"On Tuesday during his visit to Moscow Azerbaijani President Ilkham
Aliyev had a good and open talk with Vladimir Putin. All issues have
been discussed and mutual understanding found," he said.
"We are parliamentarians and our task is the formation of a legal
field that consolidates agreements at the high level," Mironov said.
In reply to journalists' question whether the problem of Nagorny
Karabakh will be on the agenda of the Federation Council delegation's
visit, Mironov said "it would be wrong to be in Baku and not to touch
on this problem, this open wound."
He pointed out that "only Baku and Yerevan have the way out of this
problem." Russia "will accept any decision the two countries will
reach. If they wish, Russia will provide assistance guarantees."
