Azerbaijani FM to meet OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen in Paris

 

Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov will meet with the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen in Paris on January 28. Mammadyarov told the media today.

The format of the meeting has not yet been determined, Mammadyarov said, Trend reports.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France and the U.S. - are currently holding peace negotiations.

Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
