    Nagorno Karabakh status cannot be decided by plebiscite - Azerbaijan
    Foreign Ministry

    BAKU May 16


    Baku has dismissed the possibility of holding a plebiscite to decide
    the Nagorno Karabakh status.

    "There can be no plebiscite, this process [conflict resolution] must
    continue gradually," Azeri Foreign Ministry's spokesman Khazar Ibragim
    told Interfax-Azerbaijan, commenting on the statement by Armenian
    Foreign Minister Edvard Nalbandian that the Nagorno Karabakh status
    could be decided by a plebiscite.

    "The question of the Nagorno Karabakh status will not be resolved
    unless Armenia shows the respect for Azerbaijan's territorial
    integrity and withdraws its troops from the occupied Azeri territories
    and returns these lands to Azeri refugees and displaced persons,"
    Ibragim said.
