/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Rather intense talks were held in Moscow, a number
of ideas proposed by co-chairs within the context of problems, which
aroused within the talks, were discussed, Azeri FM Elmar Mammadyarov
stated. "In principle a very constructive and productive exchange of
views was held over the basic principles of settlement of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict. During the talks an agreement is reached that each
party takes a pause up to October 24 to analyze the ideas discussed,"
he said.
Answering a question whether the conflict may be settled before the
end of 2006, as G8 countries suppose, the Azeri FM noted, "one should
not get fixed on some terms as it is a very serious issue."
"The main subject to talks is the issue on basic settlement principles
and proposals of the co-chairs are based on already worked out
principles, discussed within the Prague process for many years. Our
task is to find the fragile balance, on the basis of which we can
move further. We have agreed upon the basic principles of conflict
settlement however there are two principles we are working on. Exactly
these were discussed," Mammadyarov noted.
"We believe that Russia is our political and economic partner and our
neighbor. Undoubtedly, it should play a key role in the settlement
context. We see it wants Armenia and Azerbaijan to find a common ground
to turn to the first phase of the settlement. A complex conflict cannot
be solved at once, it should be solved step by step. The final element,
which will be brought in the relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia,
is the element of confidence, which is of high importance and in
that respect Russia could play a key role," the Azeri FM underscored,
