Azeri FM Elmar Mamedyarov's statement is simply absurd, NKR President Bako Sahakyan announced in Yerevan, after negotiations with Greek President and OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Dora Bakoyannis. "Such kind of statements contradict Karabakh's foreign policy," NKR President stressed.

Azeri FM announced in Baku that his country saw "NKR's autonomous status inside Azerbaijan" as the only way towards conflict settlement.
