Strasbourg. Fuad Gulubeyli-APA. Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar
Mammadyarov met with Armenian foreign minister Edward Nalbandian on
Tuesday at the French Permanent Representation to the Council of
Europe in Strasbourg.
APA European Bureau reports, OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Bernard
Fassier (France), Matthew Bryza (USA) and Yuriy Merzlyakov (Russia),
as well as Special Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office
Anndrzej Kasprzyk attended the meeting, which had a character of
acquaintance, because Armenian foreign minister is
newly-appointed. Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Elmar Mammadyarov
called the meeting as a constructive and said they had held
discussions on the meeting of Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents. The
Minister said there were several options suggested for the meeting of
the presidents. `Possibility of the meeting in June is discussed at
present, but we will report to the presidents about our meeting. The
presidents will decide on the meeting themselves'. Mammadyarov said
the next meeting of foreign ministers would depend on the reaction of
the presidents to this meeting, if the leaders consider necessary for
them to meet once more they will meet.
Mammadyarov noted that there were both will and opportunities to
develop the negotiations. `We are two neighboring countries and we
cannot run away to every each way and we should find solution to the
deadlock'.
Armenian foreign minister Edward Nalbandian also called the meeting as
a constructive and said it had a character of acquaintance. `We voiced
positions of the sides once more. First of all we agreed to develop
the negotiations. Generally I am optimist not only for today's
meeting. We are two neighboring peoples and should live peacefully. I
consider we can find the solutions to the problem between our
countries'.
OSCE Minsk Group Russian Co-Chair Yuriy Merzlyakov also expressed
satisfaction with the meeting.
