    RETURNING OF LACHIN AND KELBAJAR REGIONS WILL BE DISCUSSED NEXT WEEK: MAMMADYAROV

    The Azerbaijani and Armenian foreign ministers will discuss the
    returning Lachin and Kelbajar regions of Azerbaijan at the first stage
    under the OSCE Foreign Ministers council to be held in Almaty, Foreign
    Minister Elmar Mammadyarov told journalists today, reported by APA.

    "The meeting will be held July 16 or 17. The OSCE Co-Chairs have not
    presented us the specific dates yet," he added.

    Mammadyarov said the negotiations continue with the Armenian side on
    the basis of the updated Madrid Principles.

    "We have repeatedly discussed some of these principles in the past six
    years and now it makes no sense to get back to them," said Mammadyarov.

    At a meeting of Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents Ilham Aliyev and
    Serzh Sargsyan in January in Sochi, the OSCE Minsk Group presented
    the parties an updated version of the Madrid document.

    "Historically the Lachin and Kelbajar regions have never been part
    of Nagorno-Karabakh. Today, the matter is the return of these two
    regions," Mammadyarov said, adding that the return of the remaining
    five regions have already been resolved and will be no longer
    discussed.
