PRIVATEThe signing of an agreement on division of the Caspian Sea floor between Russia and Azerbaijan is the major result of Azerbaijani President Geidar Ali yev's visit to Moscow.

Meeting in the Kremlin on Monday, Geidar Aliyev and Russian President Vladimir Putin signed an agreement on division of adjacent sections of the Caspian Sea floor, which envisages that the sea floor will be divided in accordance with a median line modified so as to suit both sides. The method of dividing the sea conforms to universally recognized principles of international law and the usual Caspian practice. (RIA-Novosti)
