May 25 (AzerTAc). Azerbaijan`s ambassador to Pakistan Dashgin Shikarov has met Chairman of the country`s Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee Khalid Wynne.
The diplomat briefed Wynne on the ongoing economic reforms, army building process in Azerbaijan and negotiations to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

Wynne, in turn, said his country would always support Azerbaijan`s position on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. He noted Pakistan would not recognize Armenia as a state until the conflict is resolved.

For his part, Wynne said he would visit Azerbaijan this October.
