Actions of Armenian side in negotiations in Chisinau cause disappointment: Azerbaijani FM

The minister said the last meeting of Heads of States did not give cause for optimism, because the Armenian side suddenly began to discuss the issues that were agreed upon two to three years ago.

"We understand that there is a rule that unless everything is agreed, it means nothing was agreed, but it is impossible to move if to go back and start to discuss proposals or ideas that were agreed upon at least two or three years ago. This is, of course, disappointing," Mammadyarov said.

Presidents Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan and Serzh Sargsyan of Armenia met on Oct. 9 in Chisinau. This is was the seventh meeting of Heads of States on the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

Mammadyarov believes that such actions by the Armenian side are connected with the latest events in the region - the Turkish-Armenian rapprochement.

"Maybe the Armenian side considers that if the process developed in this regard, it is possible to freeze other issues," Mammadyarov said.

The minister said the OSCE Minsk Group will trip to the region in late October or early November.

"They need to interpret what they heard in Chisinau, to think how to support the dynamics that was objectively observed and are the most important, to find all the correct arguments in order to explain to Armenia that they can not raise the questions that have already been agreed. Otherwise, it will be an endless process," said Mammadyarov.
