Baku insists that the time is up for Armenia to return to Azerbaijan
bits of occupied land bordering disputed Nagorno Karabakh.
"Armenia has requested two weeks with regard to the resolution of
the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, but several months have gone by and
there has been no reaction," said Azerbaijani presidential spokesman
Novruz Mamedov on May 5. Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov said the
same the day before, adding that the key mediators -- the US, France,
Russia -- have proposed a timeline for the Armenian withdrawal from
Lachin and Kelbacar, territory sandwiched between Armenia and Karabakh.
Yerevan has responded angrily, but did not outright deny discussions
about the timeline for a potential pullout. "Some destructive people
in Azerbaijan . . . are left with no other options than to offer
endless lies, sable-rattling and muscle flexing," said Armenian
foreign ministry spokesperson Tigran Balaian.
