Armenia MFA responds to politician’s analyses on talks in Geneva

Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Anna Naghdalyan says the analyses of former director of the National Security Service of Armenia, politician Davit Shahnazaryan have nothing to do with the reality today.

“Davit Shahnazaryan’s analyses might attract the Azerbaijani side or the circles disseminating those analyses, but the main shortcoming is that they have nothing to do with the reality today,” Anna Naghdalyan said.

Davit Shahnazaryan declared that substantive talks are underway and a broad range of issues are being discussed in Geneva. “Among those issues is the creation of zones for the joint settlement of Armenians and Azerbaijanis in Nagorno-Karabakh. The first issue being negotiated is the issue of Shushi, as well as the intensification of substantive talks. It is in this context that US Ambassador to Baku Lee Litzenberger undertook the initiative and had a meeting with head of the ‘Azerbaijani community’ of Nagorno-Karabakh alongside the talks underway in Geneva yesterday,” he stated.
