As Azeri deputy foreign minister Araz Azimov stated, Armenia asked
for some time to return occupied territories to Azerbaijan.The Azeri
diplomat said that Azerbaijan will not object to opening the border
between Turkey and Armenia if initially Armenia returns to Azerbijan
5 regions and Lachin corridor and that Azerbaijan would consider this
an expression of Baku’s good will towards Yerevan. Azimov stressed the
fact that there are no conditions regarding return of Azeri refugees to
Karabakh. According to him the Azerbaijani constitution should apply
to the occupied territories and the status of the territory should
be defined through a decision by the local population. All the towns
and villages should be freed and Lachin corridor should be opened.
