Azerbaijan hopes for an early settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, Elmar Mamedyarov, the Azerbaijani foreign minister,
told Itar-Tass on Thursday. He arrived in Moscow for talks on
Nagorno-Karabakh settlement with his Armenian counterpart Vartan
Oskanyan.

The Azerbaijani minister said, "Baku hopes the results in the
negotiating process will soon be achieved." "We want changes and
specific arrangements," he remarked. "The situation in Nagorno-Karabakh
is deteriorating." "This should not be so," Mamedyarov believes. "This
runs counter to the logic of international, regional and interstate
relations."

At the same time, the minister believes "it is yet early to speak
about a meeting on Nagorno-Karabakh settlement at the summit level."

"Much depends on the results of the talks in Moscow," he noted.

"The presidents will be informed of the results, and it is for the
heads of state to decide when they should meet," he said.
