    DEPUTY FM OF AZERBAIJAN MEETS WITH HIS EGYPTIAN COUNTERPART

    AzerTag, Azerbaijan
    July 1 2006

    Deputy Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Khalaf Khalafov met with Deputy
    Foreign Minister of the Arab Republic of Egypt Mrs. Fatma al-Zakhra
    on June 30.

    Azerbaijani diplomat said this meeting is of great importance for
    continuing the political dialogue between the two countries.

    Deputy FM of Egypt Fatma Al-Zakhra said Egypt is poised to develop
    relations with Azerbaijan in all spheres. According to her, the
    major objective of her visit to Azerbaijan is to continue political
    consultations started in Cairo, strengthen bilateral relations and
    discuss proposals for development of cooperation.

    At the meeting, the discussions revolved around the cooperation between
    the two countries within international organizations such as UN, OIC as
    well as the international and regional issues. The sides touched upon
    the negotiations over Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. It
    was noted during the meeting that Armenia did not give up the policy
    of occupation and remains committed to its non-constructive stance,
    which does not allow settling the problem.

    The sides highlighted the need for developing economic, trade,
    scientific, cultural, tourism, health, educational relations and
    launching the direct flight between Cairo and Baku. Deputy Foreign
    Ministers also discussed the prospects for cooperation within the
    framework of the TRACECA project and issue of cooperation with the
    European Union.

    The meeting also focused on the issue of conducting the meeting of the
    joint Egypt-Azerbaijan joint commission slated for early 2007 in Baku.
