PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement process bases upon the consultations between the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan but not Presidents, head of the department of press and information policy at the Azeri MFA Tahir Taghizade stated. He "expresses surprise" over the latest statement by the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs, "who again laid stress on the necessity of presidential meetings." "We are all well aware that the negotiation process bases on the contacts between the Foreign Ministers. They should discuss the whole scope of issues and build foundation for presidential meetings," Taghizade said. At that he pointed out to the identity of approaches of the OSCE Minsk Group and Baku, which stands for stepwise settlement of the conflict.
