International mediators have not yet received proposals from Armenia and Azerbaijan on contentious points in a settlement to the Karabakh conflict.

At a trilateral meeting of the Azerbaijani, Armenian and Russian presidents in Sochi on 25 January, it was agreed that Baku and Yerevan should submit proposals on uncoordinated points of the Madrid principles for a settlement within two weeks.

"Azerbaijan and Armenia have not yet submitted their proposals on the uncoordinated points in the Madrid principles to the co-chairs," Minsk Group co-chair Yury Merzlyakov told APA.

Asked about a visit to the region by the co-chairs, Merzlyakov said they were waiting for the proposals from both sides.

"First, we have to receive the proposals of both parties, and then we can think about a visit."
