BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 26. The proposal to
hold the next round of “3+3” format meetings in Azerbaijan and then
Armenia has not been accepted, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun
Bayramov told Trend during a press conference reviewing the
year.
Bayramov noted that the suggestion was first made following the
last meeting in Turkey in 2024.
“For certain reasons, consensus was not reached, and the
proposal was not included in the final document. Our proposal
remains valid. The creation of the 3+3 format dates back to the
period after the Second Karabakh War,” he said.
The minister added that it gives the impression that the main
topic within this format should be the Azerbaijan-Armenia
issue.
“The issue between Azerbaijan and Armenia has largely been
resolved. Direct dialogue exists between the two countries.
Treating it as the main agenda is incorrect and does not reflect
current realities. Such a meeting can take place only regularly,
with prior agreement, and taking into account the interests of all
participating states. We do not oppose holding such a meeting,”
Bayramov emphasized.
