Armenian Foreign Minister Edvard Nalbanyan said on Monday that Armenian
and Azerbaijani presidents were likely to come together to negotiate
the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh by the end of 2013.

A conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia broke out in 1991 over the
disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh when Armenia made territorial
claims against Azerbaijan.

Negotiations have so far failed to produce a permanent peace agreement.

Nalbandyan said Armenia supported the Organization for Security and
Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Minsk Group, which encourages peace
negotiations to the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over
Nagorno-Karabakh, and would keep supporting it.

Referring to the OSCE co-chairs of the Minsk Group meeting in Vienna on
July 13, Nalbadyan said ” We have set a date for peace talks in this
meeting. A summit may be held and Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents
may come together by the end of 2013.”
