"The main principles of the conflict are presented in the document
of OSCE Minsk group American Co-Chair Mettew Bryza. By this document
first of all the issue of the NKR status is taken into consideration,"
Azeri Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov told the journalists during
the press release according to "Day.az" agency. He noted that the
Karabakh status was discussed during the negotiations.

"We must view the issue of granting Karabakh self-determination
status. These are questions of principle. The issue must be discussed
alongside with the communities living in Karabakh and create links
with them," claimed Elmar Mammadyarov. The latter finds RA NA Speaker
Tigran Torosyan’s announcements that the Azeri side is lingering
the negotiation process artificially groundless. "I have met with
my Armenian counterpart for 10 times during my office. We are ready
to continue negotiations. The conflict is very delicate. We think
that the conflict must be solved stage by stage," noted the Azeri
Foreign Minister.
