Встреча Путин-Алиев: Стороны обсудили Карабах и торговлю

В понедельник, в Санкт-Петербурге, состоялась встреча президента Азербайджана Ильхама Алиева с его российским коллегой, в преддверии трехсторонней встречи с президентом Армении.

"Как заявляла Россия и другие сопредседатели Минской группы ОБСЕ, статус-кво неприемлем. Мы эти заявления полностью поддерживаем, но для того, чтобы был изменен статус-кво, нужно начало деоккупации территорий Азербайджана, которые более двадцати лет находятся под оккупацией", - сказал Президент Ильхам Алиев, цитирует агентство Trend.az

Ранее в тот же день, Путин провел встречу с президентом Армении Сержем Саргсяном. Встреча трех президентов состоится сегодня, но чуть позднее. Это будет первая встреча Саргсяна и Алиева после встречи 16 мая в Вене.

Путин в ходе разговора затронул недавние экономические трудности в отношениях между двумя странами. "Проблема, для которой мы собрались, известна - это доставшаяся нам от прежних времен карабахская проблема, но я хотел бы воспользоваться нашей встречей для того, чтобы поговорить и о наших двусторонних отношениях", - сказал Путин. "В силу известных нам причин, к сожалению, мы наблюдаем определенный спад товарооборота", - сказал Путин.

Ethiopian dam upsets Egypt, whilst China plays a difficult game

Ethiopia last week opened its mega dam on the River Nile, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). The launch has sparked a tense diplomatic battle between Ethiopia and Egypt, with Cairo denouncing it as “an unlawful unilateral act” and protesting to the United Nations Security Council. During an inauguration ceremony on Tuesday (9 September) Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed described the US$5 billion Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam as a “symbol of Ethiopian unity and national achievement". Several regional leaders, including Kenyan President William Ruto and Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, attended the event. Egypt, whose life has historically centred around the River Nile, believes the dam will threaten its water supply and cause shortages. Following the inauguration, Cairo warned that it reserved the right to take all measures provided for under international law and the UN Charter to “defend the existential interests of its people”. Sudan, has also raised concerns about dam safety and the risk of uncoordinated water releases.
