/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The OSCE Minsk Group failed to produce effect during
17 years of its mediation, Turkey’s President Abdullah Gul said.

The Turkey-Armenia and Azerbaijan-Armenia issues are not only bilateral
but also territorial, according to him.

"The situation in the region has changed. Resolution of conflicts
will lead to political and economic stability," Gul said, Azeri
media reports.

Earlier, Gul said he intends to mediate tensions between Armenia
and Azerbaijan.

"I have enlisted support of my Armenian counterpart Serzh Sargsyan
to arrange the meeting. And I am hopeful to receive consent from
Azerbaijan’s Ilham Aliyev. I will meet with him soon to discuss
the details and will brief on the outcomes of my visit to Armenia,"
he said.

Turkish experts do not rule out that Presidents of Armenia, Russia,
Turkey and Azerbaijan can meet to discuss the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict.
