    withdraw its troops from the Azerbaijani territory to resolve the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict."

    mechanism," the minister said. "However, after the troops are
    withdrawn, this mechanism will not be required."

    even more strengthening of the status quo.

    required," Mammadyarov said.
