/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In the course of a meeting scheduled in mid-June
Armenian and Azeri Foreign Ministers Vartan Oskanian and Elmar
Mamedyarov intend to discuss 7-9 issues, the Azeri FM stated. In his
words, it is not known yet which of the European capitals the meeting
will be held in. When answering a question whether issues of stations
of part of the Russian military bases being withdrawn from Georgia
will be discussed at the meeting of the ministers, Mamedyarov noted,
“We have more serious questions to discuss.” Speaking of the coming
talks the Azeri FM said, “We have always said that the territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan should be restored and the troops withdrawn
from the 7 regions. 7-9 issues are included in the agenda of the
negotiations. We know we will come to accord over some of these,
however others will remain open. We work for making positions over each
of the negotiated elements closer.” It should be noted that yesterday
the Armenian Foreign Ministry reported that the Oskanian-Mamedyarov
meeting will be held in Paris June 18.
