"The Arab Republic of Egypt has broad knowledge of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and Cairo fully supports Azerbaijan's efforts to publicize the occupation fact to the international community," said Usae Ilbaz, political aide to Egypt's President Hosnu Mubarak at a meeting with Azerbaijani delegation at Egyptian Foreign Ministry.

Mr.Ilbaz said that official Cairo is ready to deploy different delegations to Azerbaijan to promote raising much more awareness in Egyptian public on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

"Do not feel offended for our parliamentarians lacking broad information on the conflict during the meeting at Egyptian parliament. Most of our parliamentarians are interested in the problems that concern Arab world mainly. We can deploy different delegations to Baku to familiarize with Azerbaijan's stance and have much knowledge of the truths on its problems. Everybody knows that there is instability in the world, systems are changing and problems are emerging. After the September 11 events, the international community has thought of Islam religion as a threat to the world. This opinion is absolutely wrong," the presidential aide noted. Mr.Ilbaz also aid he gained large impressions about our country by his short-term visit to Baku.

"I have been to Azerbaijan recently, got chance to familiarize with your country. My 48-hour stay in Baku was enough to get acquainted with your culture. I was deeply impressed by your rich culture and hospitability," Ilbaz stressed.

The presidential aide also reported that Egyptian large delegation will visit Azerbaijan soon. This visit will be important from the aspect of drawing up a wide report o Azerbaijan and problems it faces. Stating that the official Cairo supports the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh, Usame Ilbaz stressed that no conflict has ever brought dividend to the parties.

"I assure you that no parties to a conflict win anything. Egypt is ready to take steps in level of international organizations for the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, and supports Azerbaijan's efforts in this field," Mr.Ilbaz concluded.
