On April 4th Azerbaijan`s minister of foreign affairs Elmar Mammadyarov met Konstantin Yerokostopulos, the Council of Europe`s newly-appointed Representative in Azerbaijan.
Congratulating the guest, Mammadyarov said the Azerbaijan foreign ministry is aimed at expanding its cooperation with CoE. The minister also briefed Konstantin Yerokostopulos on peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Mammadyarov said that Azerbaijan will not agree with current status-quo on Nagorno Karabakh issue. The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict can be resolved only within the framework of territorial integrity and internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan. All refugees from Karabakh must return to their lands, the minister emphasized.
Yerokostopulos, in turn, said during his tenure he would spare no efforts to contribute to developing relations between Azerbaijan and CoE.
