"It is still untimely to speak whether Armenia is ready to move
forward in the settlement of the Karabakh conflict," Azeri Foreign
Minister Elmar Mammadyarov declared today, speaking at the opening
PACE Political Committee’s sitting in Baku, "Trend" agency reports.

He noted that "the referendum in Nagorno Karabakh shows that Armenia
is not ready for negotiations. "Possibly the participation in talks
is a step targeted at keeping the support of the West," declared
Mammadyarov. According to the Azeri FM, "the farce connected with
the referendum will have negative consequences."

Mammadyarov underlined that "in case of the settlement of the conflict
the roads will open, regional security will be guaranteed, which will
promote the development of Armenia’s economy." He added that together
the South Caucasian countries can achieve greater results.
