Azerbaijan`s Foreign Ministry: Armenia, through such actions, aims to create escalation and negatively affect negotiation process

Baku, August 31, AZERTAC Armenia, through such actions, aims to create escalation and adversely affect the negotiation process over the settlement of the Armenia-Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, said Hikmat Hajiyev, spokesman for Azerbaijan`s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “Armenian Foreign Ministry’s statement about the alleged ceasefire violation on August 31 during the OSCE monitoring in Azerbaijan’s Tovuz district on the border between the two countries is cheap disinformation,” he added. “No ceasefire violations were reported by international observers who participated in the monitoring. This is another provocation of Armenia ahead of the meeting of the two countries’ foreign ministers that to be held through the mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs within the UN General Assembly session in New York in September,” stressed Hajiyev.
