Baku's position on Nagorno Karabakh remains unchanged

Read it in Russian

Azerbaijan's principal position is to restore control over the situation in Nagorno Karabakh, Azerbaijan's Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov said talking to reporters. According to him, from the Azerbaijani's side a compromise is possible, if the communities living in Nagorno Karabakh are granted self-government status.

“The compromise Azerbaijani is ready for is significant. In this connection, we expect reciprocal compromises from the other side. In this respect, Armenia must give up its position envisaging alienation of Nagorno Karabakh from Azerbaijan,” Azimov is quoted as saying by Azeri agencies. According to Azimov, only in this case the country can come to a common solution. At the same time, the deputy foreign minister said that Armenia's position was unacceptable from the point of view of the international law and no country in the world has supported its position on Nagorno Karabakh until now. “Acknowledgement of this in Yerevan will have great significance,” he concluded.
