USA, Russia's fair position may help settle Karabakh conflict - Azeri official
The USA, Russia and France have yet to demonstrate fair position on
the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict which can seriously influence the
conflict settlement, a senior Azerbaijani official has said.
"The USA, Russia and France play a significant role in the settlement
of [Nagornyy Karabakh] conflict. Their concrete, fair position can
play an important role in the settlement of the Nagornyy Karabakh
conflict. So far, I do not see such position and therefore we are
unable to make serious steps," Novruz Mammadov, head of the foreign
relations department of the Presidential Administration said in an
interview, according to day.az website.
Novruz Mammadov believes that Russia's active involvement in the
settlement process gives hope: "Russian President Dmitriy Medvedev's
participation in the Sochi meeting of the Azerbaijani and Armenian
presidents gave hope to achieving positive outcome...I believe that
positions [of Azerbaijan and Armenia] can become closer only through
such format."
Mammadov has urged the USA and France to have a fair position on the
conflict settlement.
"Not just Russia but USA and France who play a significant role in
international processes should get involved in the process. I believe
that the three countries can make efforts and thus take a fair
position."
