Top British official visits Baku to talk

PanARMENIAN.Net - Britain's Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for the Armed Forces James Heappey is visiting Baku, in what the local media describes his first trip to Azerbaijan.

Heappey has already held meetings with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov.

According to a report from Trend, "unresolved issues between Armenia and Azerbaijan" and peace processes in the region are on the table.

Azerbaijan has broken into Nagorno-Karabakh, and the incursion has left three Armenian soldiers dead and at least 14 others injured. On March 24, Azerbaijan stormed into the zone of the responsibility of the Russian peacekeepers stationed in the area and is refusing to completely withdraw its forces from strategic heights.
