Putin invites Aliyev to discuss Nagorno-Karabakh
Moscow. (Interfax) – Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed
that he and his Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev discuss the
situation surrounding the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem.
The two leaders are meeting in the Kremlin where they arrived after
attending an assembly of the All-Russia Azerbaijani Congress earlier
on Tuesday, an Interfax correspondent reported.
Putin invited Aliyev “to talk in a calm atmosphere about an acute
problem, one of the most acute ones in the Caucasus. I mean the
problem of Nagorno-Karabakh,” Putin said.
Aliyev replied that he hopes “Russia will continue to make
significant efforts to settle the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict both
as our neighbor and as a co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group.”
