    Turkey, Ankara, October 2 /Trend, E. Huseynov/

    The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will be discussed during the upcoming
    international conferences of the Caspian Forum held by the Caspian
    Strategy Institute (HASEN), the Secretary General of HASEN Haldun
    Yavash said on Wednesday during a meeting with Azerbaijani journalists
    in Istanbul.

    According to him, HASEN has already held the Caspian Forum in
    Istanbul, as well as in New York in late September during which the
    presentation of large economic regional projects such as the "Southern
    gas corridor", TANAP and TAP were given to important officials.

    The Institute's plans include similar forums in Brussels, Moscow,
    Baku, as well as again in New York and Istanbul," he stressed.

    According to the Secretary General of HASEN, the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict will be brought up during discussion of regional security
    issues.

    "We are presenting large economic projects initiated by Azerbaijan
    from all angles. Their implementation will lead to the strengthening
    of Azerbaijan's positions in the international arena. And this will
    eventually contribute to the just solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict," Yavash said.

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
    armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

    Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
    co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group,Russia, France and the U.S. are
    currently holding peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding
    regions.
