Azerbaijan Says U.S. Proposals On Karabakh 'Very Interesting'
April 8, 2006 -- Azerbaijan's Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov
today said the United States made him "very interesting" proposals on
how to solve his country's territorial dispute with Armenia.
Speaking after talks with U.S. officials in Washington, Mammadyarov
said Baku would make its response public when U.S. envoy Steven Mann
visits the Azerbaijani capital on April 18.
Before meeting with Mammadyarov on April 7, U.S. Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice reportedly talked with the Armenian and Azerbaijani
presidents over the phone.
Yerevan and Baku have been formally at war since 1988, when the
predominantly ethnic Armenian enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh seceded
from Soviet Azerbaijan.
The United States, Russia, and France co-chair the Minsk Group of
nations mandated by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe to mediate between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
