The majority of last loud statements on Nagorno-Karabakh do not
reflect the reality, Novruz Mammadov, the head of the Foreign
Relationships Department of the President's Apparat, told Trend in an
exclusive interview.
Speaking on the last statements by the US Ambassador Matthew Bryza,
the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair, Mammadov said that he is the newly
appointed diplomat who held a very important in the parliament and
very closely familiar with the region. Appointing him as the co-chair
the United States wish to be more active and do much in the
negotiation process.
`At the same time Bryza wants to state that he is well familiar with
the negotiation process and wants its progress. Therefore, he
submitted different ideas for discussion, which do not reflect either
Azerbaijan, or Armenia. They might be Bryza's private position and
even the stance by the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs. Therefore, there
is necessity to comment on them,' Mammadov underscored. The
negotiations are held behind the closed doors, he reminded.
The senior ranking official assured that the President of Foreign
Minister of Armenia today are very much imposed to pressures by
public and the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, as well as position and
rating of Azerbaijan worldwide. `Therefore, they are very upset today
and reached the deadlock,' Mammadov emphasized. The conflict should
be resolved, the occupied lands must be liberated, territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan should be restored, as the United States and
all countries urge.
Now the key task of Baku is not to respond speculative statements by
the Armenian leadership, but continue peaceable negations this year.
`The Armenians fear that unless they come to an agreement with
Azerbaijan, the developments in other way will result their
catastrophe.
