The foreign minister of Armenia and Azerbaijan Edward Nalbandyan and Elmar Mammadyarov will meet on 1 August in Moscow, Edward Nalbandyan, the Armenian foreign minister said during the press conference on 30 July, Novosti-Armenia reported. "The meeting is organized by the co-chairmen of OSCE Minsk Group. The ministers will meet both tet-a-tet and with all three co-chairmen," minister said.
According to Nalbandyan, the parties will discuss Madrid proposals of the co-chairmen on the basis of which the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan stated their determination to continue the talks on the resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
In November 2007, co-chairmen of OSCE Minsk Group presented basic principles of the peaceful resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan. The co-chairmen believe that the "Madrid proposals" are fair and balanced.
Nalbandyan said that Armenia is ready to continue talks further on the basis of Madrid proposals.
"This is the way which will help us resolve the conflict," the Armenian diplomat said.
The previous meeting of the two ministers took place on 6 June during the informal summit of CIS head of states in St Petersburg.
