"We are ready to provide all conditions to conduct the meeting against Azerbaijani national football team in Yerevan," said Armenian FM Vardan Oskanian.

The matter is, though Azerbaijani and Armenian national teams have to meet within the qualifying stage of the European Cup in Austria and Switzerland in 2008, the Foreign Minister of the aggressive country said he had talks with International Football Federation-FIFA not with European Football Union-UEFA.

"We are having talks with FIFA. I hope Azerbaijan will provide everything for meeting in Baku," Oskanyan said.
Secretary General of Azerbaijan Football Federation (AFFA) Fuad Asadov told APA that he was not informed about Armenians talking with FIFA.

"Armenians might have talks with FIFA. However, AFFA is determined in its position," Asadov stated, APA informs.
