/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Official Baku announced that both Azerbaijan and
Armenia still fail to agree on the key issues in the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement process.

"The status of Nagorno Karabakh and Lachin corridor as well deployment
of peacekeeping forces have not been coordinated yet," said Novruz
Mammadov, Head of the International Relations Department at the
Azerbaijani President’s Office.

"When in Yerevan, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that
Baku and Yerevan managed to agree on several principles. The statement
caused a stir, like other statements of the kind made by the sides
earlier. The point is that the conflict is being resolved step by
step and the agreements achieved earlier can be implemented only in
case the positions on key issues harmonize," he said.

"It is not easy to disclose the coordinated points and there is no need
to do so, since it can damage the ongoing process, according to him.

"The issues under discussion are most important ones. Their
coordination will affect other provisions," Mammadov said, Trend
reports.
