"In principle, with few exceptions, Azerbaijan has accepted the Madrid
Document, delivered by the international mediators, which contains
the Basic Principles of the settlement to the Karabakh conflict,"
said Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev at the press conference,
following a meeting with Turkey’s Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Aliev said expects the Armenian side will take the same step, declaring
its position over the issue.
"Armenia should either accept the proposals, delivered by Russia, the
United States and France, and, if so, we are nearing the settlement
to the issue, – or Armenia says no and, thus, disrupts the talks,
staging a new period between Armenia and Azerbaijan," Aliev said.
