Acting Press Secretary Vladimir Karapetian Replies to

Question by Arminfo News Agency

- During the last several days, the Azerbaijani press is flooded with
statements and information by deputy ministers, the press secretary,
regarding recent developments in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
resolution process, and those statements often contain contradictory
judgments and interpretations. How do you interpret this behavior?

- It's true that in this recent period, the Azerbaijani side has
thrown forth various statements and interpretations, which do in fact
contradict each other.

However, the reality is very clear - the Minsk Group co-chairs,
with their second confirming statement, presented the principles
for resolution which are on the negotiating table, together with
their assessments.

Perhaps the reason for such contradictory interpretations is that the
Azerbaijani diplomats you mention are not familiar with the content
of the negotiations between the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
