On Thursday Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov told journalists that negotiations between Azerbaijan and Armenia on Nagorno-Karabakh have been suspended.
Azerbaijani sources report that meetings of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs are regularly held at different levels, but they do not to address the definite issues in a certain time frame and on a daily basis.
“During every visit, coming to Azerbaijan, they learn about our position. Then going to Armenia, co-chairs hear something there. Then say that discussions will continue in international organizations, the UN and the OSCE, and because no progress is achieved on this issue and to fill the vacuum they talk about confidence building measures. Azerbaijan has put forward a number of initiatives, but Armenia refused to accept them, “said Azimov.
Further he highlighted some statements of the co-chairs do not comply with the situation in general.
“When Azerbaijan proposed a dialogue with the Azerbaijanis of Nagorno-Karabakh and their neighbors the Armenians, the Armenian side rejected it. Therefore I see speculations on the part of the Armenian side and co-chairs,” Azimov said.
