On September 9 Azerbaijan withdrew its proposed draft resolution
A/64/L.57 from consideration and voting at the UN General Assembly,
requesting to move the relevant agenda item to the agenda of the 65th
Session of the GA.
"We are thankful to all those UN member states and in particular to
the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair countries, which through their stance
prevented Azerbaijan from deviating and damaging the negotiation
process of the settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh problem and not allowing
the adoption of an unconstructive draft resolution presented by
Azerbaijan in the UNGA.
The OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs' field-assessment mission in the
territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh is in no way connected to the
draft resolution proposed by Azerbaijan at the UNGA. In their statement
of September 6, 2010, the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs noted that an
agreement had been reached with the sides about the field-assessment
mission already before summer, that is, weeks ahead of Azerbaijan's
submission of the draft resolution to the UNGA.
Azerbaijan should refrain from its continuous attempts to shift
the settlement process, currently underway within the Minsk Group
framework, to other formats and it should refrain from provocative
and bellicose statements and actions so that the negotiation process
could proceed in a more constructive and effective course." stated
in the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia.
