"Karabakh conflict settlement negotiations between Armenia, Azerbaijan
and Nagorno Karabakh are being conducted within the framework of the
OSCE Minsk Group with the assistance of the MG Co-chairs. It is the
format of the negotiations and another format does not exist. I think
that there is no doubt about it", Armenian Foreign Minister Edward
Nalbandian said answering the question about the probability of Turkish
mediation in the settlement of Karabakh conflict. According to him,
Turkey does not take on the mediator's role in Karabakh issue.
Listening the question and the answer to it, Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign
Minister Mahmoud Mamedguliev asked to translate the question in Russian
and then underlined that from the Azerbaijani position every country's
efforts to contribute to the settlement of the conflict are welcomed.
"If there are concrete proposals, we are ready to discuss them", the
Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister mentioned adding that Azerbaijan
is ready to discuss any proposal and Turkish proposal as well.
