ArmInfo. If the leadership of Azerbaijan refuses from the
unconstructive position and stops anti-Armenian propaganda, the
negotiations within the frames of OSCE Minsk Group may bring the stands
of the parties closer and lead to settlement of the Karabakh conflict,
said Edward Nalbandian, Foreign Minister of Armenia, at the meeting
of CE Committee of Ministers in Madrid, Tuesday.
The Armenian Foreign Ministry reported that Minister Nalbandian
touched upon the negotiation process and mentioned that Azerbaijan
responded by force to the legal right of the Karabakh people for self-
determination. In particular, Azerbaijan started with ethnic purges
and then launched open and large-scale aggression against Nagorny
Karabakh involving mercenaries aligned with terrorists. The minister
said that in 2001 the parties were close enough to the resolution,
however the process was failed because of the unconstructive stand of
Azerbaijan and its refusal from the achieved agreements. Baku kept
on displaying unconstructive position by continuously denying the
existence of Madrid principles submitted by OSCE MG co-chairs in 2007.
Edward Nalbandian called the meetings of Armenian and Azerbaijani
presidents in 2008 and the declarations and statements adopted in
Moscow and Helsinki as features of progress in the peace process.
