The Armenian and Azeri presidents will not meet in Minsk Oct 17,
Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan says in an interview to
Hayastani Hanrapetoutyun daily.
The point is that the CIS Summit in Minsk Oct 17 has been postponed for
a month at least. Only the CIS FMs will meet in Minsk but the Armenian
and Azeri FMs will not meet tete-a-tete as they will have little time
and it is more expedient for them to meet Oct 24, says Oskanyan.
To remind, during their last meeting in Moscow Oct 6 the Armenian
and Azeri FMs agreed to meet in Paris Oct 24.
Commenting on the results of the meeting, Oskanayn says that the
co-chairs did not make new proposals but offered some new ideas
concerning the moot questions. Oskanyan says that the ideas are quite
interesting and should be seriously considered. Oct 24 the FMs will
consider them in general and during the next meeting in detail. Only
then will they be able to see if these ideas are leading them in the
right direction and if there is a necessity for a presidential meeting.
Oskanyan refuses to specify the moot questions but advises to
attentively follow the statements of the OSCE MG co-chairs and the
Armenian and Azeri FMs.
