Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov stated that OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs Steven Mann (U.S.), Bernard Fassier (France) and Yuri Merzlyakov (Russia) will meet in Vienna September 26-27. In his words, the mediators will determine the format and location of the conduction of the next round of the negotiations on the Karabakh conflict. "The further strategy will become clear after the meeting. Either the talks will be continued at the level of FMs or the mediators will pay a visit to the region," Mammadyarov said. Noting the existing possibilities for continuing the negotiations the Azeri FM voiced opinion that Azerbaijan should still expand its military potential. He also confirmed the position of official Baku "to grant Nagorno Karabakh the status of autonomy within Azerbaijan." "The Armenian community is not alone. Azerbaijanis also line in Karabakh and their opinion cannot be ignored. They should return to Karabakh and line normal life", Mammadyarov stated.
