    PanARMENIAN.Net - We are on the threshold of finding a solution to
    Karabakh conflict, Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt said Wednesday
    June 15 in Tbilisi at a joint briefing with his Georgian counterpart
    Grigol Vashadze.

    "We follow the course of conflict settlement with major attention and
    hope that the Azerbaijani and Armenian presidents will make a great
    progress in the upcoming talks," he said.

    Bildt stressed that the issue was discussed today during a meeting
    with Vashadze, which lasted over an hour, Trend News reported.

    The presidents of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan are slated to
    meet June 25 in the Russian city of Kazan, the next in a series of
    trilateral meetings on the frozen conflict.

    United States, French and Russian leaders called on Armenia and
    Azerbaijan on May 26 to move toward a peaceful resolution of the
    long-standing conflict over the breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh.

    "We...are convinced that it is time for the sides in the conflict over
    Nagorno-Karabakh to take a decisive step toward a peaceful resolution
    (of the conflict)," said a joint statement by Presidents Barack Obama,
    Nicolas Sarkozy and Dmitry Medvedev at the G8 summit in the French
    resort of Deauville.

    "We firmly call on the leaders of the sides to prepare their people
    for peace, not war," the statement said.

    "We call on the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia to demonstrate
    political will and finalize...the basic principles (of a peace
    agreement) during the forthcoming summit in June."
