Turkey hopes a breakthrough in Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution will be achieved during Armenian, Azerbaijani and Russian Presidents in Kazan, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu stated in an interview with ANS TV.

“Nagorno-Karabakh issue is a focal point during each meeting between U.S, Russian and French officials. We will step up efforts to resolve the conflict. I am certain breakthroughs will be achieved at the Presidents’ meeting in Kazan. The joint statement on Nagorno-Karabakh adopted within the framework of G8 Summit opened encouraging prospects. We hope Armenia will realize that protracting the conflict resolution conflicts with its positions and will make a right choice in the earliest possible timeframe,” he said.

The meeting between Armenian, Russian and Azerbaijani Presidents in Kazan is scheduled for June 25.

Presidents of Russia, France and Armenia issued a joint statement on Nagorno-Karabakh within the framework of G8 Summit, on May 26. They called upon the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan to demonstrate their political will by finalizing the Basic Principles during their upcoming summit in June.
