Madrid Principles, President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan declared during
today's joint press conference with his Russian counterpart Dmitry
Medvedev. Mr. Sargsyan said Armenia is assured that the issue can be
solved on the basis of mutual concessions and through negotiations.

the internet, since the Minsk Group Co-Chairs have registered it in
the deposits of the corresponding organization. "There is no secret
here: those are the bases that allow to recognize the principle of
the right of the people of Nagorno Karabakh to self-determination and
several other principled questions for us. The most important is that
we are confident that the issue can be solved on the basis of mutual
concessions and via negotiations," the President of Armenia stated.
Russian President Dmitri Medvedev noted that the August events showed
that any complex issue should be solved deriving from principles
and one the basis of negotiations. Nothing else can lead to positive
results. According to him, this is the main lesson from the Caucasus
crisis.
"As for my assessment of the agreements reached at the current stage of
negotiations, it's a hard thing. We are in a progressi ve stage. All
the parties are ready to search for solutions. We discussed the issue
in detail with the President of Armenia. I will not comment on the
nuances, since those are the nuances of the talks. The Presidents
of the three countries will meet in the near future to continue the
discussions on the topic, and I hope the meeting will take place in
Russia," Dmitry Medvedev concluded.
