THE MEDIATORS' LAST PROPOSAL IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR AZERBAIJAN
04.12.2000, MEDIAMAX, YEREVAN. "Azerbaijan absolutely rejects the mediators' last proposal of "common state" concept, for it presupposes formation of a second Armenian state in Southern Caucasian region", Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan Vilayat Guliyev said in the interview to Mediamax.
Guliyev said he met with the Foreign Minister of Armenia Vardan Oskanian in Vienna a week ago. "Armenian Foreign Minister didn't revert to the "common state" proposal again. Mr. Oskanian told me that with some exceptions the first proposal made by the OSCE Minsk Group in 1997 might be reverted to. We decided to discuss this question in case of corresponding instructions by our Presidents", Guliyev noted. -0-
