    The Georgian-Russian negotiations for reopening the Upper Lars
    checkpoint were held in Yerevan, Zurab Nogaideli, the former Georgian
    premier and leader of the Movement for Free Georgia, told a press
    conference.

    He said that, last October, in Moscow, RF Deputy Foreign Minister
    Grigory Krasin informed him of Russia's intention to holds relevant
    negotiations. Nogadieli also stated he knows about the persons that
    represented Georgia at the negotiations. The Georgian ex-premier
    declared for a Russian-Georgian dialogue - both between the governments
    and political parties.

    RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian also confirmed that the
    Russian-Georgian negotiations were held through Armenia's mediation.
