Discussion of question of status by the whole Nagorno Karabakh
population is possible at a certain stage of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement process, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar
Mammadyarov said speaking at a session of the OSCE ministers'
council in Brussels. "Being guided by democratic standards, legal
norms and human rights, we believe that the process of determining
the status will be carried out on the basis of equality with direct
and equal participation of the region's population, which includes
two communities, Azerbaijani and Armenian ones, so the Azerbaijani
population should return under safe conditions to the paces of their
original living in Nagorno Karabakh region," he said.
"After that opening of communications for mutual use by the parties
in both directions, restoration of the relations between the two
communities and normal life in the region, of cooperation between
the communities in humanitarian sphere, implementation of special
educational and tolerance programs, establishment of trust between
the people and the nations will follow," the minister stressed.
Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani foreign minister said that "despite
intensified activity shown this year by OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs,
OSCE chair-in-office and the parties in the conflict, we have not
come to a final decision yet." At that Elmar Mammadyarov noted that he
was not enthusiastic on the whole settlement process, Day.Az informs.
