Tallinn backs Caspian-Baltic oil pipe project
Urmas Paet told reporters following his meeting with his
Azerbaijani counterpart Elmar Mammadyarov in Baku on Monday that
although the parameters of the pipeline are still uncertain, the
diversification of Europes energy sources would be beneficial for
all, including Azerbaijan in particular.
Paet and Mammadyarov met on Monday to discuss issues concerning energy and political cooperation as well as international processes and relations.
Mammadyarov said that Estonia had decided to join the GUAM friendship group to be set up within the European Union. Lithuanian President Valdas Adamkus came out with such a proposal in 2006. The national coordinators of the GUAM countries Georgia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Moldova will meet soon to discuss the establishment of the friendship group. Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov will leave for Washington on Tuesday to attend the meeting.
The Estonian minister said that the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh must be settled within the principle of territorial integrity and the international community could render assistance in regard. There must not be any conflicts in the Caucasus. Unfortunately, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Moldova cant tackle other key issues due to the conflicts existing in these countries, he added.*
