AZERI DEPUTY PROPOSES TO INCLUDE GERMANY AND TURKEY IN OSCE MINSK GROUP SUPERVISORY TEAM
Azerbaijani Milli Mejlis deputy Zakhid Orudzh spoke for including Germany and Turkey in the supervisory team of the OSCE Minsk Group (MG) on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement. Addressing the parliament he reminded that Azerbaijan's stand is based on the principle of resolving the Karabakh conflict within the frames of the territorial integrity of the country. Meanwhile, in his words, the present MG format does not provide for this possibility, Interfax agency reports. "Azeri leadership should put forth efforts for raising this question at the OSCE next summit", - the deputy stated. To remind, Russia, the US and France are presiding in the Minsk group at present.
