Baku hails Moscow's position on Nagorno-Karabakh
The Azeri Foreign Ministry has welcomed Russian President Vladimir
Putin's statement that Moscow had been trying to help Baku and
Yerevan find a solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh problem
"Putin's words are in unison with Azerbaijan's approval of more
active efforts on the part the OSCE Minsk Group's co-chairmen,
including the Russian side," the Azeri Foreign Ministry's official
spokesman Tair Tagizade told Interfax on Thursday.
"The co-chairmen's role is not to impose a solution on anyone - this
is out of the question, and here we agree with the Russian president
- but to promote the search for a solution, just what they have been
doing," the spokesman said.
Earlier on Thursday, Putin told reporters in the Kremlin that it was
up to Armenia and Azerbaijan to find a solution on the issue of
Nagorno-Karabakh.
"Don't shift this problem onto our shoulders. You must find a
mutually acceptable way out yourselves," the Russian leader said.
