Conflicts in the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) area affect the development of the region, Deputy Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Mahmud Mammad-Guliyev said, Trend reports.
He made the remarks at a press conference following the 39th meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers of the Organization of the BSEC member states in Baku Dec. 14.

Speaking about the recently adopted resolution of the European Parliament on the EU’s Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), Mammad-Guliyev said that by this resolution, the EU confirmed that Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent districts belong to Azerbaijan.
