LITHUANIA OFFERS ITS EURO-INTEGRATION EXPERIENCE TO AZERBAIJAN
VILNIUS
Lithuania is prepared to share its experience in conducting
democratic reforms, integration into the EU and NATO, regional
cooperation and peaceful solution of conflicts.
According to a press release from the parliament, this opinion was
voiced by Parliamentary Speaker Arturas Paulauskas, who is currently
visiting Azerbaijan.
This is the Lithuanian parliamentary speaker's first visit to
Azerbaijan after the restoration of Lithuania's Independence in 1990.
The parliamentary speaker has met with Azerbaijan's President Ilgam
Aliev, President of Azerbaijan's State Oil Company Natik Aliev, Prime
Minister Artur Rasizade, Parliamentary Speaker Murtuz Aleskerov,
Foreign Minister Elmar Mamedyarov.
During the meetings with Lithuania's delegation, the leaders of
Azerbaijan's parliament stressed that Azerbaijan was interested in
experience in the legislation area, especially when it comes to
regulation of the solution of social issues.
The president of Azerbaijan approved of Lithuania's initiative to
activate mutual ties and voiced an idea to set up an
intergovernmental commission tasked with developing mutual
relationship between Lithuania and Azerbaijan.
The Lithuanian delegation ran a presentation for the leaders of
Azerbaijan on the Klaipeda sea port and the possibilities of reaching
remote EU markets from it.
The meetings with Azerbaijan's president, leaders of the parliament
and of the government focused on the possibilities to regulate the
unresolved conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the Mountain
Karabah.
Paulauskas accentuated that Lithuania was interested in solving the
conflict peacefully and emphasized that the solving of this matter
should have the widest possible representation of international
community.
Azerbaijan is demanding that Armenia should withdraw its troops from
the Mountain Karabah.
Later this week, the parliamentary speaker will also visit Georgia
and Armenia.
