Azerbaijan’s Foreign Affairs Minister Elmar Mammadyarov on Tuesday
said his government is not quite sure on what the OSCE’s Minsk group
co-chairs meant by ` compromise,’ a word they uttered frequently while
their last visit to the region.

Mammadyarov told ANS that during his recent visit to the United States
he asked Stephen Mann, the US co-chair of the Minsk group, to express
precisely what they mean by the word.

`I told him that the most important issue for Azerbaijan is its
territorial integrity. If you think of another compromise beyond that,
make sure what idea it is exactly,’ the Foreign Minister told ANS.

Mammadyarov added that his country is currently waiting to hear from
the co-chairs.
