Mammadyarov.
According to Araz Azimov, a meeting of Azerbaijan and Armenian foreign
ministers is scheduled in mid-June. In his opinion Azerbaijan position

based on the international law principles.

territories, return of forced migrants to their houses, the status
of Nagorno Karabakh, security guarantees to representatives of both
communities of the region, restoration of the communication system and
other questions" are subject to negotiations. The Azeri Deputy Foreign
Minister said that Azerbaijan has chosen the way of integration and
successfully proceeds along that way.
Mr. Azimov said "after the liberation of the occupied territories and
the solution of these problems, normal relations will to all appearance
be established between Armenia and Azerbaijan." He also stated that
"the occupied Azerbaijani territories are uncontrolled and there is
a danger thereupon that certain arms are concealed there".
