    TURKISH MINISTER URGES INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY TO FOCUS ON NAGORNYY KARABAKH

    Anadolu Agency, Turkey
    July 18 2013

    Baku: Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu and his Azerbaijani
    counterpart Elmar Mammadyarov stated on Wednesday that they were
    unpleased with the OSCE Minsk Group's studies in finding a political
    solution to the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh involving Armenia and
    Azerbaijan.

    Paying an official visit to Azerbaijan, Davutoglu held a joint
    press conference with his counterpart Mammadyarov and evaluated the
    solution process of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan
    and Armenia.

    Underlining that Armenian soldiers should leave Nagorno-Karabakh,
    Davutoglu said "Turkey is consistently in consultation with Azerbaijan
    as it has always been and from now on we will continue to support
    the fair approach of Azerbaijan".

    Reminding that Nagorno-Karabakh conflict had not been solved over
    20 years and Azerbaijani lands have still been under occupation,
    Davutoglu said "it is time for international community to evaluate it".

    Davutoglu said, "The Minsk Group has made an effort on this issue
    over 20 years and we appreciate those efforts but they have not given
    any results. Everyone should question the causes of the failure and
    co-chairs should play more active roles. The members of Minsk Group
    should take actions, too".

    "Turkey is also a member of the group but as co-chair has carried out
    the process Turkey cannot give enough contribution to it. Turkey will
    support every positive step to solve the issue," said Davutoglu.

    Pointing out a new implementation between Turkish and Azerbaijani
    diplomats starting on May, Davutoglu said that a specific number
    of Turkish diplomats in Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan and also
    Azerbaijani diplomats in Foreign Ministry of Turkey would work like
    they were working in their country.

    The Minsk Group spearheads the OSCE's efforts to find a political
    solution to the conflict in and around Nagorno-Karabakh involving
    Armenia and Azerbaijan.
