Autumn Negotiations on Karabakh to Be Fictitious, ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs


Baku / 14.08.17 / Turan: One of the local websites published a
material that, citing Armenian and American sources, assures that the
Azerbaijani-Armenian negotiations on Karabakh will be held in autumn,
under the aegis of the American mediator.

The same website draws conclusions that, in spite of the Armenians'
confidence in the benefits of future negotiations for Yerevan, which
at least expects the preservation of the current status quo, in fact,
Baku will benefit.

Commenting on this "analysis", ex-Foreign Minister Tofig Zulfugarov
called on the authors of the publication not to retell the Armenian
tales.

"In March next year, the term of office expires for the Armenian
President, and in accordance with the constitutional amendments, he
will become Prime Minister. Before that, he will not conduct any
negotiations.

And the upcoming meeting of Foreign Ministers in September is needed,
as a theatrical performance - no more. Well, maybe Elmar Mammadyarov
will visit his children who live in New York, but this has nothing to
do with the settlement of the conflict," Zulfugarov said to Turan IA.
