    Azerbaijan, Baku, 19 January / Òrend corr. K. Ramazanova / The issues
    on peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will be
    reflected in the first report of the European Union (EU), about the
    fulfilment of the obligations to EU by Azerbaijan, Ingrid Angela
    Gossinger, the new coordinator of the European House in Baku, said to
    Trend on 18 January.

    `The report will reflect all the priority fields and specific actions
    taken by the EU and Azerbaijan in 2007, including those on the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,' Gossinger said.

    The action plan on the EU-Azerbaijan New Neighbourhood Policy was
    signed on 14 November 2006. It is intended for 2007-2013.

    The priority directions in the action plan for Azerbaijan are:
    strengthening of democracy in the country, improvement of the
    business and investment climate, support to long-term economic
    development, improvement of the economic and transport cooperation
    between EU and Azerbaijan, as well as strengthening of cooperation in
    the border management.

    According to Gossinger, besides Nagorno-Karabakh, the report will
    also reflect the issues on democratic and legislation norms,
    improvement of the business and investment climate, fight against
    corruption, the human rights and freedom, energy and transport.

    The third round of the negotiations between Azerbaijan and the EU on
    the action plan, within the framework of the European Neighbourhood
    Policy, will take place on 4 February, during the visit of the EU
    Troika to Azerbaijan. The opening ceremony of the EU representation
    in Azerbaijan is expected to take place during the visit.
