Elmar Mammdayarov: "It is difficult to expect any new offers on the
NK conflict in Washington"
22 April 2006 [16:30] - Today.Az
New proposals are unlikely to be heard during Washington's
discussions on resolution of Armenian-Azeri conflict.
"Positions of Azerbaijan on which we were standing on last 15 years
remain the same. We always stated and keep stating that the problem
shall be resolved in compliance with the international law and
resolutions issued by UN Security Council and OSCE. There is no doubt
that if we want to resolve the conflict once and for all, the
resolution shall be based on legislation alone. Arbitrators are
trying to find contact points to get us closer," Trend reports
quoting Azeri Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov, who was speaking in
Moscow commenting the forthcoming official visit of Azeri President
to the USA.
Speaking on self-determination of Nagorno-Karabakh population,
Mamedyarov said it didn't imply any breach of territorial integrity
of Azerbaijan. "Self-determination of nation or a national minority
is performed under the territorial integrity, and Azerbaijan, in
turn, is eager to provide the highest level of autonomy to Armenian
minority within Nagorno Karabakh. This practice is well-known and is
utilized worldwide," Foreign Minister said.
Mammadyarov said also of a broad range of issues regarding mutual
cooperation, as well as international and regional development, to be
spoken of during the forthcoming visit of Azeri president Ilham
Aliyev to the USA. The minister said one of the main topics would be
conflict resolution on Caucasus. During the visit presidents will
also speak of power security, fight against international terrorism
and Azerbaijan's participation in anti-terrorist coalition.
