ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Tuesday calls for a ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh are reasonable but must include an Armenian withdrawal from Azeri lands, and he floated holding talks that would include Ankara.

Speaking at a news conference with his Swedish counterpart Ann Linde in Ankara, Cavusoglu said a meeting including all 11 members of the Minsk group - formed to mediate the conflict and led by Russia, the United States and France - would help.
