Baku. Lachin Sultanova - APA. "Azerbaijan completely accepts new
version of Madrid principles. But there are some elements there that
we are not satisfied with them", said Minister of Foreign Affairs of
Azerbaijan Elmar Mammadyarov at the joint press conference with the
OSCE Chairman-in-Office Kanat Saudabayev.
Mammadyarov said he had phone conversation with Russian counterpart
Sergei Lavrov and he told him that Armenia has not sent its proposals
on uncoordinated points of Madrid principles yet. "Regarding
Azerbaijan, we are completely satisfied with the document because
it considers stage-by-stage solution to the conflict. It contains
withdrawal of Armenian troops from the occupied territories of
Azerbaijan, restoration of all communications, return of internally
displaced persons, security of the people living and returning to
Karabakh, temporarily status of the Armenian population there and
determination of final status together with the Azerbaijani community
later.
Mammadyarov said President Ilham Aliyev made statements describing
Azerbaijan's position for many times and noted that Azerbaijan wanted
Azerbaijani and Armenian communities of Nagorno Karabakh to co-exist
within the highest autonomous status.
