There is not a concrete proposal whether or not Azerbaijani and
Armenian Foreign Ministers will meet, Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign
Minister Araz Azimov told journalists.
Mr.Azimov said the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs are discussing this issue
adding there will be concrete information in few days, APA reports.
"We have always assessed the meetings in terms of their efficiency and
concreteness. We’ll have heard constructive proposals not repetition
of old stances. We can achieve something only if Armenia demonstrates
a constructive position," the Deputy Minister said.
Reminding that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev has offered concrete
proposals regarding the principal issues, Azimov said details are
discussed at the meetings at a level of Foreign Minister.
He admitted that some standstill appeared in the negotiating process
for the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict after the Bucharest
meeting stressing new proposals are expected to be made in September
this year.
"We can hope for something to happen in September. Proposals are on
the table. Armenia can state its position if interested," the Deputy
Minister said.
