Meetings between Armenian, Azerbaijani FMs are announced in agreed manner, foreign ministry

The Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has commented on OSCE Chairperson in Office, Slovakia’s FM Miroslav Lajčák’s statement on an upcoming meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers due in Bratislava.

“First of all let me mention that the meetings between the Armenian and Azerbaijani FMs and leaders are taking place solely at the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs and high level representatives of the co-chairing countries.

Indeed, the co-chairs have made a proposal on organizing a meeting, something which is mentioned in both the press statement regarding the New York meeting of the Armenian and Azerbaijan FMs and the press statement as a result of the co-chairs’ regional visit. As you know, we announce these kinds of meetings in an agreed manner, and we won’t breach this principle,” foreign ministry spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan said.
