Addressing the 14th session of the OSCE foreign ministers today,
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov said that the
constitutional referendum planned in Nagornyy Karabakh [on 12 December]
is illegal and will have a negative impact on a peaceful settlement
of the conflict.

Elmar Mammadyarov had a meeting with the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen
today. During the meeting, the sides discussed the current stage
of resolution of the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict and plans for the
near future.

In spite of preparation, the meeting between the Azerbaijani and
Armenian foreign ministers failed to take place because of different
working schedules of the two ministers.
