ARMENIAN, AZERI PRESIDENTS TO FOCUS ON KARABAGH

ASTANA, SEPTEMBER 15, ARMENPRESS: Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents Robert Kocharian and Ilham Aliyev are set to meet today evening in Kazakhstan’s capital Astana to focus on the Nagorno Karabagh conflict regulation. Russia’s president Vladimir Putin, who initiated the meeting on the sidelines of a CIS summit, will also attend it.

Russian Itar-Tass news agency quoted a source in the Kremlin as saying that it was Moscow’s initiative to organize the meeting and that both presidents responded positively to the proposal. “The main focus at the meeting will be on Nagorno-Karabagh settlement. In Moscow’s view, the three-way format has justified itself,” the source said, adding that Moscow has always believed that the Armenian and Azeri sides should themselves seek for a solution, while Moscow is ready to help them achieve a mutually acceptable peace formula.

Azeri president Ilham Aliyev was also optimistic about this meeting. He was quoted last week by Azeri mass media as saying that the meeting would have a crucial importance for settling the protracted conflict. “The meeting may introduce clarity into the situation so that we could see where we actually are at the moment and whether we’re getting closer to an agreement or drifting away from it,” he was quoted as saying.
