    inadmissibility of the status-kvo in a question of the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    Elmar Mamedyarov emphasized the importance of conclusion of the
    Armenian armed forces from occupied territories of Azerbaijan for
    advance of the peace process, peace restoration and stability in all
    region, noting that the position of Armenia interferes with conflict
    settlement.

    The need of continuing efforts in the conflict settlement was noted at
    the meeting.

    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
    armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

    co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France and the U.S. - are
    currently holding peace negotiations.

    on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
