/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The only grounds head of the Azeri Foreign Ministry Elmar
Mamedyarov had is the policy pursued by the Azeri party that aims at showing
that Armenia fully controls the territories mentioned. Apparently, it is not
so. This was stated by NKR Foreign Minister Arman Melikian, when he spoke of
the grounds Mamedyarov had for a statement over `return of the 7 regions by
the Armenian party.’ In his words, they do it due to purely political
considerations. The control over the territories is an affair of the NKR
authorities and decisions over the territories cannot be made without the
consent of the Karabakh people. Thus any calls, statements the Azeri party
makes on the territories and withdrawal of the Armenian forces are still
something desired but not real, the NKR FM stated, Regnum news agency
reported.
