Armenia has not yet decided who will conduct negotiations on Karabakh - the president or the prime minister
Baku / 25.07.18 / Turan: The meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia is scheduled for September, announced the Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov. "In Brussels we conducted discussions for four hour. Of course, the opposite side needs time for in-depth study of both the situation and the documents; and probably we will meet in September.
We and the co-chairs decided to hold a meeting within the framework of the meeting of the UN General Assembly," Mammadyarov said. However, the meeting can take place before.
"I am ready to negotiate in the existing format and framework. However, it is important for the Azerbaijani side that the negotiations are conducted not for the sake of negotiations, but for achieving results. As for high-level meetings - presidents, or prime ministers, the Armenian side asked for time to study the question, how and in what plane to negotiate," Mammadyarov said. -06D-
