'Armenia's acceptance of 2009 Minsk Group proposals to be a progress'
Sat 24 September 2011 06:09 GMT | 2:09 Local Time
Azerbaijan's FM met Minsk Group co-chairs Robert Bradtke, Igor Popov
and personal representative of the OSCE chairman-in-office Andrzej
Kasprzyk.
According to the press service for the Foreign Ministry, during the
meeting the sides discussed the negotiation process for the peaceful
settlement of the Karabakh conflict and stressed the importance to
continue these talks.
Minister Mammadyarov said with regret that Armenia rejected the
updated Madrid principles thus challenging the whole peace process.
A significant progress is only possible in the event Armenia accepts
the official document presented by the Minsk Group to Azerbaijan and
Armenia in December 2009.
During the meeting, it was brought to the attention of the sides that
the status quo does not meet the requirement of either Azerbaijan or
the world community, as fixed in the relevant documents adopted in the
French city of Deauville. As is known, Azerbaijan offers to start
working at the peace treaty based on the mutual agreement on a number
of principles of the resolution process.
Minister Mammadyarov especially noted that the possible understanding
by Armenia of the need to withdraw its troops from Azerbaijani
occupied lands will promote peace and stability in the region.
