I hope that when you become the Ambassador, you will come to your own independent conclusions.

Are you aware that the Turkish leadership in the north has rejected the Council of Europe's request to conduct an islandwide census to accurately determine the current demographic composition of the island's population?

As the author of the sanctions on the Central Bank of Iran, I am concerned that some countries are not cooperating with us in that regard.

I still see tens of thousands of people who were never there, who have no history with the Island of Cyprus...

Thirty-eight years after the occupation and invasion, it is beyond the mindset of anyone to believe that we would still be in this set of circumstances today.

I can only assume that one would reject a census because the very essence of my question is the concern that is being driven here.

I did not hear President Aliyev say his main enemy or security concern is Iran.

I will do everything that I can, looking at it from the Azerbaijan side of things, if confirmed, to discourage that and talk about how unacceptable that is.

we have to very strictly draw the line with respect to assistance that can be in our interest and helpful to Azerbaijan as opposed to assistance that could be used with respect to the dispute with Armenia.

I look forward to following up with Ambassador Morningstar.

I have a real problem with us going ahead and selling military hardware to Azerbaijanis based upon what has happened.
