24 May 2007 13:58 (UTC +04:00)

Commenting on OSCE Minsk Group Russian co-chair Yuri Merzlyakovâ€™s statement â€œin case the presidentsâ€™ meeting is successful they will have to meet again for final agreement on core principles,â€ Araz Azimov said no decision has been made on presidentsâ€™ meeting.
â€œWe will discuss the process with Yuri Merzlyakov and Bernard Fassier. After discussions it will be decided whether to hold a presidential meeting. Currently, there is only one issue on the table which is to set basic principles for an accord on the settlement of this conflict. If the basic principles are agreed, all the issues in the agreement should be clearly marked because the agreement is signed to be implemented. We are at the first phase now which leads to agreement of basic principles,â€ he said. /APA/
