Dear Ilham Heydarovich,
I would like to covey the warmest regards from Dmitry Medvedev.
Following the discussion held in Kazan the President of Russia has
prepared a message to you and Serzh Sargsyan with his proposals on a
vision for solving the Nagorno-Karabakh issue, which was recently
discussed in the format of the three presidents and with participation
by the representatives of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, Russia, the
United States and France.
I am pleased to convey these proposals to you. Hopefully, after
studying them, you will respond to the ideas suggested.
I fully share your position on the development of Russian-Azerbaijani
relations. In a few days' time the Minister of Foreign Affairs of
Azerbaijan will come to Russia on an official visit. There will be an
exchange of instruments of ratification for the State Border Treaty
between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Azerbaijan, and a
number of decisions will be adopted aiming at bolstering our foreign
policy cooperation.
Once again thank you for the opportunity to meet and convey the
proposals on behalf of the President of Russia.
