The Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov positively assessed the
results of his meeting with his colleagues from Azerbaijan and
Armenia who arrived in Moscow to discuss the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict. According to the Russian Foreign Minister, the meeting was
very productive.
The tri-lateral meeting held in Smolensk Square was attended by the
Foreign Minister of Azerbaijan, Elmar Mammadyarov and Foreign
Minister of Armenia, Vardan Oskanyan, Trend reports quoting
ITAR-TASS.
“Moscow was not selected a place for the trilateral meeting by
accident but because historically Russia has played an important role
in the Caucasus, particularly in the settlement of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,” the diplomatic source in Moscow stated.
He stressed that the key topic of this meeting was directed towards
finding ways of resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
The Russian co-chair of the OSCE Yuri Merzlyakov said the agreement
to conduct the meeting of the Azerbaijan and Armenian Foreign
Ministers was reached as a result of the negotiations of the OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs in Baku and Yerevan.
