Baku(Interfax) - Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammedyarov and
his Armenian counterpart Vardan Oskanian will meet in Prague on August
30 to discuss ways to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
"During the meeting, the ministers will discuss the issue of settling
the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh," the Azerbaijani
Foreign Ministry's press service told Interfax on Monday.
Confidentiality will be one of the principles of the upcoming talks,
the ministry said.
Azerbaijan lost control over Nagorno-Karabakh and seven neighboring
districts as a result of a conflict with Armenia in the early-1990s.
The UN Security Council has denounced Armenia's occupation of
Azerbaijan's territory and has called on Armenia to withdraw its
troops. The United States, Russia and France, as co-chairmen of
the OSCE Minsk Group, have been assisting Armenia and Azerbaijan in
settling their dispute.
