Armenia denies a point which it coordinated in a previous meeting and tries to return to the same issuesâ€, chief of the public policy department of the Presidential Administration of Azerbaijan Ali Hasanov told journalists, APA reports.

He said it was time to show will arisen from the norms of international law. â€œAzerbaijan has no authority to review the activity of the OSCE Minsk Group and to determine its composition. This is an OSCE institution and its composition and the number of member countries are determined by the OSCE. If there is such dissatisfaction at the OSCE next summit Azerbaijan can express its position there. We are concerning about that the co-chairs couldnâ€™t reach any progress so far. The current question is that the European Union can be represented in the group. There are other proposals too. The Turkeyâ€™s representation is also on agenda. The OSCE should assess the proposalsâ€.

Hasanov also reacted to the protest by the Armenian foreign ministry against the Turkeyâ€™s representation in the Minsk Group. â€œArmenian foreign ministry doesnâ€™t think what it protested. This country has no own volition. Armenian president and foreign ministers have no their own volition. And therefore there is no serious progress in the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflictâ€.
