Araz Azimov: Baku willing to continue talks

PanARMENIAN.Net - GUAM member countries should combine efforts for resolution of conflicts in their territories, Azerbaijan's Deputy Foreign Minister said.



"These conflicts should be resolved through the norms of the international law. This principle underlies GUAM's approach that was agreed at the summit of GUAM heads of state two years ago", Araz Azimov told a conference in Baku.



He said GUAM member countries should combine efforts for resolution of conflicts in their territories and dismissed the misconception of 'frozen conflicts.'



"By 'frozen conflict', we mean frozen situation, not frozen settlement process", he said.

"Azerbaijan is willing to ensure peace and stability in its territory while Armenia tries to drag out the settlement process. Ways of solution should be found. These ways are political pressure, international law and common stand of the international community."



"Azerbaijan is ready to continue talks for resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. We never refused dialogue," he resumed, Azeri Press Agency reports.
