/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Azeri side responded to the OSCE MG Co-chairs'
proposals in written form, OSCE MG Russian Co-chair Yuri Merzlyakov
said. In his words, Azeri FM Elmar Mammadyarov handed the reply at
the London meeting September 13. "However, Mr. Mammadyarov warned
that this not a final reply, the document can be presented to the
other side after the co-chairs rework at it, and it is agreed upon
with the Azerbaijani side," the Russian diplomat said.
According to him, the Armenian side made an oral statement that the
text is acceptable but for some resolution amendments.
Yuri Merzlyakov remarked that the meeting of the Armenian and Azeri
FMs will not take place within the framework of the 61st session
of the U.N. General Assembly in New York. They will hold separate
meetings with the mediators. The Russian diplomat said that September
12 in Paris the Armenian Minister warned he will refuse to meet with
Mammadyarov in case the issue of 'frozen conflicts' is included in
the session agenda. "On the day of meeting with Mammadyarov it was
announced that GUAM's proposal was not passed in the General Assembly
and we agreed on the ministerial meeting in New York. But then the
proposal was passed with one odd vote and Oskanian said he will not
meet with Mammadyarov but will hold consultations with the Co-chairs,"
Merzlyakov said, reported APA.
