Baku, July 10, AssA-Irada -- Azerbaijani and Armenian Presidents Ilham
Aliyev and Robert Kocharian are not expected to table settlement to
the Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh conflict during the upcoming G8 summit
in St. Petersburg, despites reports suggesting otherwise.
President Aliyev has not received such an invitation, the head of the
President's Office international relations department, Novruz Mammadov,
told the press Monday.
Mammadov said he is surprised with the reports saying the two heads
of state are to meet during the meeting of the world's industrialized
nations in Russia.
"An invitation to the summit would suit us, but there is no specific
information in this regard yet," he said. Mammadov added that there
is little chance this will happen.*
