Azeri Deputy FM: Russia has special mission in Karabakh settlement

Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov said that the Minsk Group's inability to reach a result on Nagorno Karabakh was "saddening," World Bulletin reported.

Speaking to Turkish press in Ankara where he arrived to hold bilateral talks, Azimov said that "Armenia must understand well what it gained and what it lost."

Touching on the airport in Stepanakert, Azimov said that "it's impossible to open the airport legally and politically."

Azimov added that Russia had a special mission in solving the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.
