/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Outcomes of this meeting (which is most likely
the last one in the passing year) of the Presidents of Armenia and
Azerbaijan Robert Kocharian and Ilham Aliyev were rather humble. This
is how Head the Department of Issues in International Relations of
the Institute of Political and Military Analysis Sergey Markedonov
commented on the outcomes of the meeting of Armenian and Azeri
Presidents in Minsk to a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words,
the outcomes of the Minsk talks reminded those of meetings in London,
Rambouillet and Bucharest.
"After the Minsk meeting Azeri President Ilham Aliyev stated that at
the meeting it was managed to agree over matters not agreed upon before
and "we are approaching the final stage of talks over settlement of
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict." At the same time the Azeri leader
recognized there are "principal issues, over which opinions of the
parties differ." In the analyst's words, most likely Aliyev Jr. meant
the refugee issue, as well as that of territories. "And naturally
the issue on the status of Karabakh itself.
As different from his colleague the Armenian President preferred to
take a pause to think over the situation available," Markedonov noted.
