/PanARMENIAN.Net/ «An agreement over the Nagorno Karabakh conflict may be reached at the recurrent meeting of the Azeri and Armenian Presidents to be held August 26. The talks held within the past year provide ground for an opinion of this kind,» Project Director of International Crisis Group for Caucasus Sabine Freizer stated in the air of RFE/RL. In her words, the population is not sufficiently informed on the course of the talks, which results in discontent and press speculations. «It is utterly important for the Governments of Azerbaijan and Armenia to provide information to their country population irrespective of whether an agreement is reached or not. Otherwise the attitude of the population of both countries to any arranged issues will be negative,” she said. The International Crisis Group monthly report says during OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs’ visit to the region there were optimistic conversations about peace. The document says that the matter of the referendum in Karabakh was discussed in the press, while the Azeri MFA denies it. The report also notes that in spite of the public opinion in Azerbaijan still being very critical, relative calmness is available in Armenia. It notes that on the eve of the parliamentary election pressure over Azerbaijan increases – the US, EU and OSCE make statements on the need to hold free and fair election.
