‘new diplomatic process for normalization of the relations of Turkey
and Azerbaijan with Armenia will start in the coming days’.
"New diplomatic process for normalization of the relations of Turkey
and Azerbaijan with Armenia will start in the upcoming weeks with
participation of the US, Russia and Switzerland. Presidents of
Azerbaijan and Armenia achieved significant improvements in the
negotiations. Messages we received from both countries show that the
political will make the solution to these problems available. There
is a spark of hope, there is probability of solution. This is
not the process to last for many years. If both sides demonstrate
will, OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs Russia and US demonstrate will,
the problems can be solved. The question is the multilateral and
bilateral dialogue among Russia, US, Switzerland, Azerbaijan, Turkey
and Armenia. Our target is to achieve win- win results. We will start
large-scale process in the upcoming weeks. All the details of these
issues will be discussed in these countries. The term of the process
will be determined as a result of the diplomatic talks held among
six countries," A. Babacan said.
