/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Azeri Deputy Foreign Minister, President’s special
representative for Karabakh talks Araz Azimov stated that he considers the
meeting of Armenian and Azeri FMs V. Oskanian and E. Mamedyarov in Paris
productive. In his words, issues of common use of roads between Azerbaijan
and Armenia through the territories of Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhichevan were
touched upon in Paris. Now Baku awaits Yerevan’s response. In his words,
Baku suggests road shared use and hopes Yerevan will accept the proposal, as
the parties are interested in reliable communications. Azimov reported that
the common road route is planned to pass next to Aghdam, Stepanakert,
Shushi, then Goris region of Armenia, Sisyan with further outlet to
Nakhichevan. The Deputy FM considers the project advantage is both parties’
use of the road, as in this case none of them will be interested in a
blockade. It was also known that to make progress in the Karabakh conflict
settlement a donor conference will be convened and international
peacekeeping forces will secure the communication, reported Regnum news
agency.
