YEREVAN. - Certain territories of Karabakh are under occupation of Azerbaijan, said Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandyan at Armenia-Diaspora Forum, representing the process of settlement of the Karabakh conflict since 2001.

"What Baku states today is a delusion. They say that during 2010-2011 the OSCE Minsk Group made suggestions that have changed the essence of the negotiation process and basic principles. During the current year Azerbaijan has repeatedly demonstrated its non-constructive approach to the settlement process, in particular, after the meeting of three presidents in Sochi and Kazan," said Nalbandyan.

Referring to the Madrid principles, Nalbandian noted that Armenia will continue its policy on the Karabakh issue, which has been a priority for the past 20 years.

"Armenia is open for negotiations, contrary to Baku, which accepts only two of the basic principles and only in its own interpretation. Baku accepts the principles of territorial integrity and in this context we should stress that some of Karabakh territories are under Azerbaijani occupation."
