"Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Nagorno Karabakh still remains
a main source of unstable development in the region and obstacle
to its integration into Europe," Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar
Mammadyarov said in his speech at the 17th meeting of OSCE Ministerial
Council.
The minister said 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territories are under
the occupation, one million Azerbaijanis have become refuges and IDPs,
cultural and historical monuments have been destroyed as a result of
the conflict.
The minister noted that this year the negotiations on peaceful solution
of the conflict were intensified which further deepened discussions
over the outstanding matters.
"I'd like to note a positive dynamics in the last negotiations. Along
with the parties, the co-chairs also demonstrate activity. Azerbaijan
pursues a constructive policy aimed at establishing normal relations
between Azerbaijani and Armenian communities of Nagorno Karabakh region
of Azerbaijan. The relations to be established between the communities
would will help normalize relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia,
too," the minister added.
The minister noted that Nagorno-Karabakh's self determination within
Azerbaijan would enable to resolve the conflict soon and eliminate
tension in the region.
"Withdrawal of Armenian troops from occupied Azerbaijani territories
in limited timeframe could be key to resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict and development in the region," the minister said.
