Minister of Azerbaijan Elmar Mammadyarov met here with his
counterpart Ahmad Abu Al-Jeit on October 15. The parties discussed

economic fields as well as within international organizations, and
exchanged views on the situation in the Middle East and international
security issues.
The Egyptian Minister said touching on the Armenia-Azerbaijan
conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, he supported the efforts by the OSCE
Minsk group, as well as the talks between the leaders and foreign
ministers of the conflicting states aiming at peaceful settlement of
the problem. He expressed hope it would be settled soon in the
framework of territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. Both Ministers
pointed out that the economic relations between Azerbaijan and Egypt
were not on a due level and stressed the importance of expanding
trade and economic cooperation between the two countries. They
welcomed the idea of opening the flight Baku - Sharm El Sheik- Cairo

countries, and intensify direct contacts among businessmen.
Informing his Egyptian colleague on the implementation of the
