“Azerbaijan has never refused its international commitments and approaches the negotiations mediated by the OSCE Minsk Group for the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict as a serious process”, head of the Azerbaijani delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe Samed Seyidov said.
He said unfortunately, Armenian side was not only refusing these negotiations, but it was also avoiding the process. “If even it participates in the negotiations, it is a non-constructive participation. Armenian side avoided all contacts proposed by Azerbaijan within the international organizations”.
Seyidov reminded that recently Armenian side has refused to attend the meeting of the Nagorno Karabakh’s Azerbaijani and Armenian communities. “They also rejected the meeting of the PACE Subcommittee on Nagorno Karabakh. They knew that if even they participated, they would have weak position. Therefore they used all means to avoid the meeting. But Azerbaijani side doesn’t avoid the negotiations and is ready to participate in any dialogue. We are interested in changing of current status quo. The government of Azerbaijan expressed its position many times”.
