Baku. Elnur Mammadli – APA. "There are no effective results within
the period OSCE Minsk Group has existed. They always say we should
ourselves reach an understanding with Armenia, they can only give
proposals. What is the use of Minsk Group, if we will ourselves reach
an understanding with Armenia?" Vice-Speaker of Azerbaijani Parliament
Ziyafat Asgarov told journalists, APA reports. He said the current
format of the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict should not
be refused.

"I think there is no need to refuse Minsk Group format, we should
work with this group. But we should lay down conditions before the
Minsk Group, so that their activity has concrete results. If Armenia
does not release the occupied territories, ignores the UN resolutions,
Minsk Group should have its say," he said.
