    The Russian and Azerbaijani Presidents Dmitry Medvedev and Ilham
    Aliyev will discuss Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement and the
    legal status of the Caspian Sea at the talks in Sochi on Aug. 9,
    RIA Novosti reported.

    The press-service of the Russian President told media that President
    Aliyev will pay a working visit to Russia at the invitation of
    Russian counterpart.

    "The extensive exchange of views on key aspects of Russian-Azerbaijani
    relations, as well as on the urgent issues of regional agenda,
    especially the negotiation process on Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
    settlement is planned to be held during the meeting of the two
    leaders," a statement said.

    The Kremlin recalled that the Russian and Azerbaijani Presidents
    regularly meet during the trilateral talks on the Nagorno-Karabakh
    settlement with the Armenian President.

    The last meeting was held in Kazan on June 24.

    Presidents Medvedev and Aliyev will also discuss the Caspian theme
    in Sochi in the context of the ongoing negotiations on the legal
    status of the Caspian Sea and in light of the decisions of the Third
    Summit of Heads of Caspian littoral states in Baku in November 2010,"
    the Kremlin press-service said.

    In November 2003, the Caspian countries signed the Framework Convention
    for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Caspian Sea.

    In July 1998 Russia and Kazakhstan signed an agreement on the
    delineation of the northern part of the Caspian Sea in order to
    exercise sovereign rights for subsoil use.

    On Nov. 29, 2001, and Feb. 27, 2003, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan signed
    an agreement on the delineation of the Caspian Sea.

    Kazakhstan , Azerbaijan and Russia signed an agreement on the
    delineation of adjacent sections of the Caspian Sea on May 14, 2003.

    The Presidents will exchange views on cooperation in the humanitarian
    sphere. "The international humanitarian forum is planned to be held
    under the patronage of the Azerbaijani and Russian Presidents in Baku
    in October," the press-service said.

    Moreover, the special attention will be paid to the implementation
    of the agreements in trade-economic, energy and investment-banking
    reached during the Russian President's official visit to Baku in
    September last year.
