Baku, 19 April: The main principles of the Nagornyy Karabakh settlement
were discussed during the Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign ministers’

Prague process. The OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs made proposals on two
of eight elements of the settlement "to bring the sides’ positions
closer", the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry press secretary, Xazar
Ibrahim, has told Turan.
He also said that the co-chairmen would visit the region after the
Armenian parliamentary election [on 12 May].
