The chief goal of the meeting of Armenian and Azerbaijani FMs and
OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs in Paris was to bring Azerbaijan to a
constructive negotiation field, Armenia's FM Edward Nalbandian said
at the National Assembly on Monday.
"Before it Azerbaijan made a step back in Kazan and not only in
Kazan but earlier in Astrakhan, St. Petersburg, refuting all the
proposals of the co-chairs relating to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
settlement," Nalbandyan said, adding that it has created a situation
that Azerbaijan was rejecting any progress in talks, wanting the
negotiations to fail. Nalbandian said Safarov's extradition deal was
another blow to the talks.
"Just one step was necessary for the talks to continue. Armenia
stated it is determined to continue talks, and if there is someone
who wants the process to fail it is Azerbaijan," the minister said,
adding that the latest meeting was an attempt of the co-chairs to
bring Azerbaijan back on the table of negotiations.
Asked what has changed after Safarov's extradition, the FM said
the international community has given a corresponding response to
Azerbaijan's behavior. "All the countries and organizations have
strongly criticized the step," he said, adding that the only unchanged
thing is the necessity for Armenia and co-chairs to oblige peace on
Azerbaijan and peaceful settle the conflict.
