`Armenian side avoided all contacts proposed by Azerbaijan within the
international organizations’

`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, APA reports.

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’.
