/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Azeri FM Elmar Mammadyarov expects that during a
meeting with Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian the parties will have an
opportunity to find common points in most complicated matters of
settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. «Within that context
the meeting in Moscow was useful. Though, when proceeding to details,
unexpectedly one finds out that there are many problems. I am not
going to be too optimistic, at the same time I want to assess the
situation realistically. New elements appeared, as well as a new field
for work over these,» Mammadyarov remarked.
Answering the question «why these «common points» were absent
before,» the Azeri FM said, «A poignant search for opportunities
is underway. It is necessary to find a fragile balance to make
positions closer. Given polar, opposite viewpoints, it is very hard
and laborious to reduce these to a common opinion, taking into account
how sensitive is the NK issue both for us and Armenia. Within this
context of course our task is to work for making positions closer. It
is hard to say whether we will succeed or not. I do not want and,
maybe, I cannot look far forward. However, in principle it is
undoubted that we have that desire. Now everything is so subtle that
I would not speak of a break,» Azeri FM said.
