The dates of the following meetings between presidents and minister
of Armenia and Azerbaijan have not been coordinated to date, Trend
reports with reference to Novruz Mamedov, head of foreign relations
with Executive Administration of Azerbaijan’s President.

He said individual suggestions on conversation process by cochairmen
of OSCE’s Minsk Group (MG) are ‘not fully agreed’ and for this reason
dates of consultations are not identified yet. Concerning the messages
stating that MG’s American and French cochairmen are putting forward
some specific suggestions on peaceful resolution of the conflict,
Mr Mamedov said a time is required to compile the suggestions of both
cochairmen into something that would make more sense. He added that
Azeri side would speak on these suggestions after Armenians.

Mr Mamedov said boosting the conversation process gives much hope
to official Baku. “We suggest that in case Armenian side takes some
steps based on good sense, some certain advancements will take place
during this year. This is desirable by all the sides”, – he concluded.
