Azerbaijan is willing to resume talks in a bid to find a political solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with Armenia, says Azerbaijani deputy foreign minister
Azerbaijan is willing to resume talks under the Chairmanship of the OSCE Minsk Group in a bid to find a political solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with Armenia. However, Baku has insisted on seeing "practical steps" toward a peace plan which would map out Armenia’s withdrawal from occupied regions in order to proceed with negotiation talks.
The Minsk Group’s co-chairing countries are seeking grounds for a new round of talks in mid-May, Azerbaijani deputy foreign minister Araz Azimov, told Hürriyet Daily News on April 29, ahead of his meeting with Fatih Ceylan, deputy undersecretary of the Turkish Foreign Ministry.
Both Turkey and Azerbaijan were uncomfortable with stalled peace negotiations over Nagorno-Karabakh, he said, but his country was suspicious about Armenia’s intention to end occupation.
"We should see Armenia’s will to end occupation. The first steps of confidence-building measures must be withdrawal from occupied regions," he noted.
