Baku, 20 July: We could not achieve the desired results at the Moscow
meeting of the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia, the head of
the foreign relations department of the Presidential Administration,
Novruz Mammadov, has told Day.az. He was commenting about the Moscow
meeting of the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia, Ilham Aliyev and
Serzh Sargsyan, on the peaceful resolution of the Nagornyy Karabakh
conflict held on 17-18 July.
"The sides had left for the Moscow meeting with great optimism taking
into account the processes that had taken place before the meeting:
the display of some constructive position by the Armenian side
at the St Petersburg meeting followed by a joint statement by the
leaders of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair countries - Nicolas Sarkozy,
Dmitriy Medvedev and Barack Obama. And we thought that we would have
an opportunity to make a serious breakthrough in the settlement
of the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict at the Moscow meeting. However,
as I understand, despite all of this, in a sense the Armenian side
was far from being constructive at this meeting," Mammadov underlined.
