    BAKU READY TO AMASS POLITICAL PROFITS
    By Aghavni Harutyunian

    Baku is ready to negotiate with Nagorno Karabakh, if the NKR
    citizens accept Azerbaijani citizenship. Elmar Mamedyarov, foreign
    minister of Azerbaijan, made such a statement. According to him,
    it is quite possible to hold negotiations with Nagorno Karabakh,
    if the NKR Armenians accept Azerbaijani citizenship, recognize the
    territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, its laws and Armenia leaves the
    negotiation process.

    "But I am afraid that Armenia doesn't want Azerbaijan to hold direct
    negotiations with the Armenian community of Nagorno Karabakh,"
    Mamedyarov shared his fears with journalists. He added that if no
    progress is achieved in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement
    process, "Azerbaijan will have to use force to take back its occupied
    territories."

    Naturally, the foreign ministry of Nagorno Karabakh responded
    these absurd statements. According to NKR foreign ministry, the NKR
    citizens were never and will never be Azerbaijani citizens. Besides,
    NKR authorities were always for their participation in the
    peaceful settlement negotiations as full-fledged side without any
    pre-conditions.

    Hamlet Gasparian, spokesperson of RA Foreign Ministry, stated in
    the interview to PanAremain.net that Armenia can't seriously treat
    the statements of the Azerbaijani diplomats and will not step out of
    the negotiations.

    We just want to add that by making such absurd and idle statements
    Mamedyarov tries to restore his own rating or has quite extraordinary
    illusions. We wonder, what they are going to negotiate over if the
    NKR people accept the conditions of Mamedyarov.
