    Last statements from Armenian Foreign Minister V. Oskanyan are
    constructive and show the commitment to the peaceful conversation
    process, Trend reports quoting Tair Tagizadeh, head of information
    and press, Azeri Foreign Ministry.

    On April Oskanyan reportedly said "f Azerbaijan recognizes
    Nagorno-Karabakh's people's right for independent identification of
    their future status, Armenia is ready to make serious conversations
    on resolution of war consequences". And two days back he said the
    following: "In case Azerbaijan agrees that Nagorno-Karabakh's people
    have the right for self-determination that may be embodied not today,
    but in the future, Armenian side is ready to discuss the most important
    war issues today - grounds, refugees and so on".

    "This statement witnesses Armenians' intention to actively participate
    in peace conversations on resolution of Armenian-Azeri conflict, -
    said Tagizadeh, - This statement is de facto the evidence of commitment
    to stage-by-stage resolution. It is known that stage-by-stage process
    stipulates Armenian forces withdrawal from grounds surrounding Nagorno
    Karabakh. It also includes a mass of accompanying elements like mine
    clearing, communications recovery, return of forced migrants and
    ensuring their safety. And second issue is definition of Nagorno
    Karabakh's status".

    As to self-determination, Tagizadeh said, it is quite possible even
    within the state. "This is the very highest autonomy status we are
    talking of", - he concluded.

    Tagizadeh.also shared an opinion on Oskanyan's statement regarding
    Armenia's joining Trans-Caspian gas pipeline and supposed conversations
    with the USA. "Armenia may not talk to the USA alone for a number of
    reasons. One of them is that no regional project is executed without
    Azerbaijan either as an exporter or a transit country. We may consider
    cooperation with Armenia possible only upon completion of resolution
    and elimination of its consequences", - Azeri official underlined.
