Steinmeier: We await with hope meeting of two presidents in Paris
Germany is following closely the regional conflicts, including the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier was quoted by Azerbaijan’s APA news agency as saying in Baku at a joint press conference with Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mamedyarov.
The German foreign minister said that Ukraine has diverted them for months, but the Karabakh conflict is being viewed with the same concern: “We await with hope the upcoming meeting of Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Paris on October 27 and we hope the meeting will thaw the frozen positions and lead to a lasting resolution to the conflict”.
The German minister added that the European Union’s special representative for the South Caucasus is an experienced German diplomat.
