    Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The United States has developed a new scheme of
    settlement of Azerbaijani-Armenian conflict for Nagorno Gagabagh.

    to bbcrussian.com) for holding of a referendum at which the region's
    residents could define their future.

    "The issue (Nagorno Garabagh status) will be defined by voting of
    people living there. I mean Garabaghs themselves," Mr. Braiza said
    commenting results of the Minsk Group session with participation of
    foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan.

    "We propose withdrawal of Armenian troops from seven regions around
    Nagorno Garabagh and bringing in international peacemakers to provide
    return of IDPs and refugees, creation of corridor to connect Armenia
    and Nagorno Garabagh and process of voting for definition of the
    future of Nagorno Garabagh," Mr. Braiza said.

    Simultaneously, he admitted that "they don't known when it occurs".

    The Russian co-chair of Minsk Group, Yury Merzlyakov, stated on
    Friday to journalists that the Minsk Group operates normally and the
    conflict parties - Armenia and Azerbaijan are inclined constructively
    in respect to each other.

    Following the Garabagh conflict Armenia occupied 20% of Azerbaijani
    territory. Since ceasefire regime has been operating between the two
    countries since 1994.
