OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Kazakhstan's Secretary of State and Foreign
Minister Kanat Saudabayev and Armenia's Foreign Minister Edward
Nalbandian have held a meeting today, followed by a press conference.
Among the meeting's highlights were items of Armenia-Kazakhstan
cooperation, process of settlement to the Karabakh conflict, and
regional security.
When asked at the press conference to comment on Azerbaijani Foreign
Minister Elmar Mamedyarov's statement that Azerbaijan considers
receivable the Madrid Document, Edward Nalbandian said that the
documents were delivered to parties in November 2007 yet.
"I'd like to remind that for over a year nearly Azerbaijan was denying
to receive the Madrid Document of basic principles as a basis for
negotiations; and they repeatedly stated this. They even said of
absence of the Madrid Document," said Armenia's Foreign Minister. He
also pointed that the sides will learn the document only after
Azerbaijan to present its concrete proposals in accordance with the
reached in Russia's Sochi agreements.
When asked whether Kazakhstan as the OSCE chairperson will stick
out for the withdrawal of snipers out of the contact line between
the NKR and Azerbaijan, Kanat Saudabayev said: "Any measures aimed
at the defusing should be supported, including the snipers not to be
on this line."
