Youth and Sports Ministry has suggested Azerbaijan-Armenia matches
in the qualifying for 2008 European championship to take place in
Austria, Switzerland or Ukraine.

Ministry’s press secretary Rafig Abbasov told APA-Sport said that
the proposals have already been sent to the UEFA.

Azerbaijan refuses to play against Armenia in Baku and Yerevan. So
we have appealed to the EUFA to hold matches in one of these three
countries, he said.

Abbasov stated that if UEFA suggests other places as a neutral field,
Azerbaijan will discuss the issue.
