Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign ministers Elmar Mammadyarov and Vardan
Oskanian, who were attending the Caspian outlook-2008 international
conference in Slovenia, did not have negotiations for the settlement
of the Nagorno Garabagh conflict.
The Ministry told the APA it was due to co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk
Group Bernard Fassier (France) and Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia) not being
in Ljubljana.
Though Matthew Bryza, deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European
and Eurasian Affairs & US co-chair of the Minsk Group, which is
mediating in the settlement of the conflict, attended the international
conference, he did not offer the foreign ministers to meet.
The Foreign Ministry spokesman Tahir Taghizadeh told the APA Elmar
Mammadyarov is reported to have met with Matthew Bryza on the very day
he arrived in Slovenia and discussed the settlement of the conflict.
Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign ministers are expected to continue
the negotiations within the Prague process in a European country in
mid September this year.
