12 March 2010 [09:21] - Today.Az
Azerbaijan's Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov has said an updated version of the Madrid principles makes it possible to discuss a large agreement.
“For me personally, Armenia should accept the updated version of the Madrid principles as well. But they say they cannot as there are some options they do not agree with. Now negotiations are underway on these options.”
Mammadyarov said several international organizations and countries emphasized that it was high time that the Nagorno-Karabakh dispute was solved.
“Both heads of the OSCE Minsk Group`s co-chairing countries, Kazakhstan which chairs the OSCE as well as Spain which heads the European Union have declared the year 2010 will be crucial from the point of view of finding a solution to the conflict. Similar statements were made by President of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly Joao Soares and the assembly`s special representative on the dispute Goran Lennmarker. And it means the whole international community awaits progress in the problem, and hopes the occupied lands will be liberated and refugees will return to their homelands,” said the Azeri FM.
