Azerbaijan never requested the Russian Foreign Ministry to suggest Turkey as the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing country, RF MFA spokesman Andrei Nesterenko stated.

“Russia received no official offer as to the above. To make this a topic of discussion, we, at the very least, need the agreement of all conflicting parties. Considering the recent suspension of ratification of Protocols on normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations, we can hardly expect it,” the diplomat said during a briefing in Moscow, RF MFA press service reported.
