foreign minister
BAKU Sept 4
Baku is willing to continue negotiations with Yerevan to settle the
Nagorno-Karabakh problem as soon as possible, said Azeri Foreign
Minister Elmar Mammadyarov.
"We should continue negotiations with Armenia and the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairmen and bring peace and stability to the region soon,"
Mammadyarov told journalists on Thursday.
The resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict must be based on
preserving Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity and sovereignty, he
said.
Meeting the last time in Moscow on August 1, the Azeri and Armenian
foreign ministers accepted a proposal from the OSCE Minsk Group co-
chairmen on meeting again in September, Mammadyarov said. "We have not
yet received proposals from the co-chairmen as to where this meeting
should take place and when. So let’s wait for news from the
co-chairmen," Mammadyarov said.
