ARMENIA’S READINESS TO WITHDRAW TROOPS FROM 7 DISTRICTS – INTERPRETATION OF JOURNALISTS

YEREVAN, MAY 19. ARMINFO. Armenia’s readiness to withdraw troops from
7 districts is just interpretation of journalists, Russian co-chair of
OSCE Minsk Group Yuri Merzlyakov says in an interview to trend news
agency commenting on Azeri FM Elmar Mamedyarov saying that Armenia
is ready to withdraw troops from 7 districts controlled by NKR.

Merzlyakov says that Mamedyarov did not make such a definite
statement. What does mean Armenia is ready? This principle was not
questioned by the Armenian side – the Armenian troops will be withdrawn
from the districts around Nagorno Karabakh. But there is yet no final
agreement on how and when this will be done, says Merzlyakov noting
that the issue of troops withdrawal is not a matter of tomorrow or
day after tomorrow.
