Azerbaijan\'s Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov told journalists in Baku on 20 June that the Paris talks resulted in a rapprochement between the two sides\' positions concerning unspecified aspects of the peace process. Azimov said the Paris talks focused on \"various aspects,\" of which the most important to Azerbaijan is the liberation of Azerbaijani territories currently under Armenian control and creating \"normal conditions\" for the return to those districts of Azerbaijani displaced persons. He suggested that in the initial stage, international peacekeepers could be deployed to those districts.

He suggested that in the initial stage, international peacekeepers could be deployed to those districts. Azimov also said that the highway that connects the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic with Armenia (the so-called Lachin corridor) should be under Azerbaijani control, while both sides should have the use of the remaining sections of the highway from Azerbaijani\'s Agdam District via Karabakh, Lachin, and Armenia to the Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic.
