    The Foreign Minister of Armenia, Edward Nalbandian and the Deputy
    Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan, Mahmud Mammadguliyev, gave a joint
    press conference after the sitting of the Council of Foreign Ministers
    of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation Organization.

    "The negotiations on Nagorno Karabakh are underway between Armenia,
    Azerbaijan and Nagorno Karabakh within the framework of the OSCE Minsk
    Group and with the support of the Co-Chairs. There is no other format
    of negotiations. Turkey does not act as a mediator in the settlement
    process," the Armenian Foreign Minister declared.

    According to Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister, Turkey is a member
    of the OSCE and a serious player in the region.

    "Azerbaijan's position is as follows: we welcome the efforts of any
    country towards the settlement of the Karabakh conflict. We will accept
    any real and concrete proposal that would contribute to the solution
    of the issue. As for Turkey's suggestion, we will definitely accept it
    if it turns out to be suitable to Azerbaijan." Mahmud Mammadguliyev
    added also that the issue should be solved within the framework of
    the norms of international law.

    The electronic and print media have been writing over the past two
    days that the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Turkey are going to
    sign an agreement on the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations
    in Yerevan. Edward Nalbandian informed that Armenia and Turkey have
    no intention to sign any document today.
