Baku. Ramil Mammadli - APA. `I do not agree to the proposal to refuse
the mediation of the Minsk Group. Of course, Azerbaijan is also
concerned that the co-chairs have not achieved concrete results in the
resolution of the conflict.
We always express our position regarding this. The views expressed in
Azerbaijan and other countries regarding the replacement of the
co-chairs are only suppositions,' chief of the Department of Foreign
Relations of Azerbaijani Presidential Administration Novruz Mammadov
said, APA reports.
Chief of the department mentioned that the French Senate passed a bill
criminalizing the denial of the so-called `Armenian genocide', but the
French Constitutional Council repealed it.
`We should not take hasty steps as soon as something happens. Various
situations appear in the international relations, Azerbaijan's
position has shown that we are on the right track,' he said.
Commenting on the next visit of OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs to the
region, Novruz Mammadov said the mediators should seek other ways to
make Armenia demonstrate constructive position.
`The question is that at the Kazan meeting Armenia once more
demonstrated that it is not interested in the lasting resolution of
the conflict. Armenia wants to protract the process, therefore the
OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs' proposals do not justify themselves. I
think, after the co-chairs meet with Azerbaijani President and express
their position on this issue, we will be able to know how the process
is developing,' he said.
