MOSCOW
Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanyan said Yerevan and Baku can
hopefully find "common denominators" in resolving the Nagorno
Karabakh problem.
He said so at a meeting with his Russian and Azerbaijani counterparts
in Moscow on Wednesday.
"There is hope that we'll find common denominators; it would bring
peace and stability to southern Caucasus," Oskanyan said.
According to the Armenian diplomat, the parties at the meeting in
Moscow were discussing preparations for the talks between the
presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Kazan on August 27.
"We've discussed details of the upcoming negotiations," Oskanyan
said.
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mamedyarov gave a positive
valuation to the Moscow meeting. However, he believes it is premature
to talk about any headway in resolving the conflict.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov emphasized Moscow's intention
"to create all conditions for achieving progress in the settlement"
at the talks in Moscow.
