"I think the authorities of Nagorno Garabagh are prepared to cooperate
with international organizations and Azerbaijan as well to put out
the fires in the regions along the border," Armenian foreign minister
Vardan Osknayan said, APA reports.
Commenting on his Azerbaijani counterpart Elmar Mammadyarov's

concerning the fires. These fires break out every summer due to hot
weather. Simply, the fires have caught large areas this year. This
was also said in the report drawn up by personal representative of
OSCE Chairman-in-Office Andrzei Kasprzyk," Oskanyan said.
Armenian minister also commented on official Baku's appeal to the UN
for ensuring its participation in extinguishing the fires, "I cannot
understand why this issue should concern the UN."
