  • Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Unveils Several Details Of Negotiations

    AZERBAIJANI FOREIGN MINISTER UNVEILS SEVERAL DETAILS OF NEGOTIATIONS WITH HIS
    ARMENIAN COUNTERPART

    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 8. ARMINFO. Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign
    ministers discussed the prospects of liberation of the occupied regions
    of Azerbaijan and restoration of transport and other communications
    between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Sofia. Azerbaijani Foreign Minister
    Elmar Mamedyarov made this statement dwelling on several details of
    the negotiations at the 12th session of OSCE Council of Ministers,
    the newspaper Echo reports referring to the press-service of the
    Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry.

    The minister stated in his speech that "having occupied Karabakh
    region and the districts nearing it, Armenia wants to strengthen the
    results of its military aggression actively waging a settling policy
    in the occupied Azerbaijani territories." He called it a serious
    violation of the International Humanitarian Law, in particular,
    a full contradiction to the Geneva Convention of 1949. Mamedyarov
    pointed out that Azerbaijan adheres to peaceful resolution of the
    conflict on the basis of the International Law, UN Security Council
    resolutions and OSCE documents. He said that Azerbaijan is ready to
    normalize its relations with Armenia, but it requires the latter to
    come out from the position of the principles of the International
    Law and democracy and not from the position of the realities reached
    by force and the ideology of territorial demands. Giving a positive
    assessment to the meetings in Prague, Elmar Mamedyarov expressed
    concern over the "illegal activity in the occupied territories,
    which causes a real damage to the negotiation process," and called
    OSCE to make its contribution to the problem's solution.

    Within the framework of the session, Mamedyarov held also bilateral
    meetings with EU Commissioner for Foreign Relations and Policy of
    European Neighborhood, Director of OSCE Democratic Institutions and
    Human Rights, Special Representative of OSCE Chairman-in-Office for
    Karabakh, as well as the heads of Turkish, Belgian, Austrian and
    Greek delegations.
