Artsakh ready to discuss most controversial issues with Baku - FM

ArmInfo.Azerbaijan, through the Russian peacekeepers, has promised to release three young people,  Artsakh FM Sergey Ghazaryan told reporters.   

As to whether the young people will be deported to Artsakh or to  Armenia, Mr Ghazaryan said they will in any case be in a safer  environment. 

Ghazaryan stressed that the Azerbaijani side, having made an attempt  to send a consignment of "humanitarian aid" along the  Akna-Stepanakert road, went to another provocation. "Thus, they  themselves recognized the existence of a humanitarian crisis, but  such issues are not resolved in this way," the minister said, adding  that almost all initiatives coming from various structures are  discussed with the political actors of Artsakh, on the basis of which  appropriate decisions are made.

Answering a question about Baku's proposal to open the Lachin  corridor while opening the Akna- Stepanakert corridor, Ghazaryan  recalled that there are many proposals, but none of them has become a  reality. He noted that the Karabakh side is the most interested in  negotiations with Azerbaijan. "We are ready to discuss the most  difficult issues in order to find mutually acceptable solutions, but,  as we see, the Azerbaijani side avoids this. With the help of Russian  peacekeepers, we periodically send our proposals to Baku, to which we  simply do not receive a response," the head of the Foreign Ministry  of Artsakh said.
