or not the a draft resolution on the Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper Garabagh
conflict will be put on discussion at the UN General Assembly in
August, Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov has said.

talks. “If we achieve progress in talks, the situation will certainly
change. In this case, we will re-work the document,” he said.
