Azerbaijan, Baku, Oct.4 / Trend, A.Badalova /
The stability in the Caucasus and Caspian region is key for the world stability, World Stability Observatory head Luis Manuel Fraga, who is attending the Second Baku International Humanitarian Forum, told Trend on Thursday.
"Sooner or later we will be able to organize international conference on stability in the Caucasus and Caspian region issues. The stability in these regions is key for the world stability," he said.
He said it is not first time he is in Azerbaijan. "Every year I come and see that the country is progressing. The poverty has significantly reduced during the past 20 years," Fraga said.
He said the country is progressing because it has strong government with clear ideas about future. "These ideas are going to be fulfilled," he added.
According to Fraga, bilateral relations between Azerbaijan and Spain are good and are going to develop better and better. "Our institute covers stability issues. Among countries we cover are several countries from Soviet Union, and one of them is Azerbaijan," he said.
