Azerbaijani, Baku, Nov. 3 / Trend News M. Aliyev /

Azerbaijan Embassy in Germany denied Armenian media outlets' information about participation of representative of so-called Nagorno-Karabakh Republic at the international exhibition in Dusseldorf.

On October 28, Armtown.Com published the information on its website about participation of head of orthopedic center under the Ministry of Social Protection of so-called Nagorno-Karabakh Republic at the international exhibition "REHACARE International 2009" to be held in Dusseldorf on Oct. 13- 17.

The Azerbaijani Embassy in Germany got in touch with organizers of the exhibition and found out that the name of a representative of so-called Nagorno-Karabakh is not included in the list of participants of the exhibition, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry told Trend News with reference to the embassy on November 3.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan lost all of Nagorno-Karabakh except for Shusha and Khojali in December 1991. In 1992-93, Armenian armed forces occupied Shusha, Khojali and seven districts surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -- are currently holding peace negotiations.
