    FM Babacan defined the Upper Karabakh issue as an important problem.

    The Turkish foreign minister commented on Turkish, Azerbaijani and
    Armenian relations during his formal visit to the Azerbaijani capital
    of Baku on Monday.

    Turkey's Foreign Minister Ali Babacan expressed thought that
    Azerbaijani-Armenian good relations would contribute to relations
    between Turkey and Armenia.

    "Good relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia and positive step
    taken to solve relations will also better relations between Turkey and
    Armenia," Babacan told a joint press conference with his Azerbaijani
    counterpart Elmar Mammadyarov.

    Babacan defined the Upper Karabakh issue as an important problem.

    "Some of territories of Azerbaijan are under the occupation of Armenia,
    which is an important problem that need to be solved," he said.

    Babacan said that problems should be solved through diplomacy and
    peaceful means.

    "Our goal is not to leave a problem to upcoming generations, but to
    leave a better and more prosperous Caucasus that lives in peace and
    order," he said.

    Babacan said that it was difficult to ensure real peace and stability
    in the Caucasus as long as problems were not solved.

    "A real welfare can be ensured after real peace and stability are
    assured," he said.

    Babacan hoped that diplomacy traffic would yield positive results.

    On Turkish-Armenian relations, Babacan said Turkey would always stand
    by Azerbaijan.

    Also speaking in the press conference, Mammadyarov said that Babacan
    and he agreed to continue talks on Turkey's proposal to set up a
    platform on stability and cooperation in the Caucasus.

    Babacan met Azerbaijani Parliament Speaker Oktay Esadov and President
    Ilham Aliyev. He is scheduled to also have a meeting with Prime
    Minister Artur Rasizade.
