Interfax

Azerbaijan's defense minister warned on Wednesday that Armenia's
alleged procrastination with its role in the search for a negotiated
solution to the two countries' conflict over Azerbaijan's disputed
Armenian-speaking enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh threatens a new
Azeri-Armenian war.
To evade a further escalation of tensions, the Minsk Group, a body
appointed by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
to mediate in the conflict, should step up its efforts, Safar Abiyev
said during a meeting with U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State
Eric Rubin.
Rubin assured Abiyev that the United States would pay more attention
to the conflict this year and said Azerbaijan's territorial integrity
is essential for U.S. interests and for regional stability.
