His Excellency Mr. Ilham Aliyev, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan  Dear Mr. President, I would like to express my deep concern at the resumption of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and continued attacks to Ganja city causing death of civilians, which is a breach of international law. In order to prevent further escalation and loss of human lives, as well as the violation of basic human rights, all hostilities must cease immediately. I call on all parties involved to put their efforts towards the peaceful settlement of their long-standing differences in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and abide by UN Security Council resolutions and international law with the principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity and inviolability of state borders at their core. I remember vividly your speeches at the Global Baku Forums, it was never about forceful solutions. We need to look for new mediation. With guidance of our co-chairs we are working to promote rule of international law. My very best wishes for peace in Azerbaijan. Sincerely, Petre Roman Prime Minister of Romania 1989-1991 Minister of Foreign Affairs 1999-2000 Member of the Nizami Ganjavi International Center
