Azerbaijan highly appreciates the visits by the Turkish Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in
Washington where they held talks with US officials over the possible
ways to resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, acting secretary of
the Azerbaijani Yeni Azerbaijan (New Azerbaijan) Party, Ali Ahmedov,
was quoted by the Azerbaijan 1news.az news agency as saying.

"Turkey has called on the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs to spend more
efforts for the settlement of the conflict. Turkey backs Azerbaijan’s
approach which satisfies us. Unfortunately, there are some countries,
also among the OSCE MG co-chair states, which are having difficulties
in expressing their just approach and showing their resoluteness over
the Karabakh issue when necessary," said Ahmedov.

At the same time he proposed changing the OSCE MG format.

"Turkey is the best candidate to complete this format," said Ahmedov.
