YEREVAN. March 24 (Interfax) - Armenia and Azerbaijan have not reached any consensus on key aspects of settling their relations and concluding a peace treaty, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said.
"We haven't yet managed to reach agreement on the most key issues [in negotiations on a peace treaty]. But I wouldn't like to specify how far away Armenia's and Azerbaijan's positions are from each other," Mirzoyan said at a meeting of the parliament's Standing Committee on Foreign Relations.
There are no Russian or Western options for settling the Armenian-Azerbaijani relationship, he said.
"There is an Armenian-Azerbaijani process. There were parameters proposed by Russia, which Azerbaijan has not accepted, unlike Armenia. These parameters implied detailing Nagorno-Karabakh's status in the future. This process ongoing between Armenia and Azerbaijan implies the establishment of an international mechanism for addressing the rights and security of the people of Nagorno-Karabakh in the format of a direct dialogue between Stepanakert and Baku," Mirzoyan said.
