    Baku. Elbrus Seyfullayev - APA. "We hope Armenia will demonstrate
    constructive position at St. Petersburg meeting of the presidents,"
    Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov told journalists, APA reports.

    The Minister mentioned that there were some expectations from the
    Zurich meeting in January and Prague meeting in May, and advised not
    to hurry.

    "The results can be analyzed after the St. Petersburg
    meeting. Unfortunately, no improvement was made at the meeting in
    Prague. It is another matter why it did not happen, but we want to
    achieve improvement soon," he said.

    Elmar Mammadyarov said signing of any document at the meeting in
    St. Petersburg was not discussed.

    "If any agreement is reached during the discussions, there may be
    an opportunity to work on the document. But it is impossible to say
    whether it will be or not beforehand," he said.

    To the question "What can you say about the proposal on your addressing
    the parliament concerning the negotiations on the settlement of
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict?" the minister said he will brief with
    great pleasure not only in closed meeting, but even openly, if there
    is improvement in the negotiations.

    "The negotiations have not produced any results yet. The negotiations
    are held in closed conditions because of some delicate issues. There
    are such delicate issues that agreement may be reached, if discussions
    are closed," he said.

    The Minister said the negotiations were held stage-by-stage. First
    of all Armenian troops should leave the occupied territories, the
    areas should be cleared of mines, roads should be restored, IDPs
    should return to their native lands, all communication lines should
    be opened, the status of Nagorno Karabakh should be determined after
    normal condition is established there. Elmar Mammadyarov said the
    working group would solve the way of determining the status.
