BAKU, Azerbaijan (AFX) – Armenia is ready to give up the seven regions
of Azerbaijan it occupied during an early 1990s war for the Nagorny
Karabakh enclave, Azerbaijan’s foreign minister Elmar Mamedyarov told
ATV today.

“They have agreed to give up all the regions, but they are thinking
when” they should do this, Mamedyarov told the network in Warsaw,
where the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenian held talks on Sunday.

However, an unidentified Armenian foreign ministry official in Yerevan
has told Agence France-Presse that he has no information about such
a agreement.

Armenia and Azerbaijan have been locked in a stalemate over the
majority ethnic-Armenian enclave since they signed a ceasefire to a
six-year war in 1994.
