Washington wants to organize a meeting between Armenian and Azerbaijani
presidents, and Azerbaijani MP and political analyst has said.
Speaking to the Azerbaijani news website SalamNews, Rasim Musabekov
said that it can easily be seen that the US makes efforts to hold
such a meeting.
"In the near future US officials are expected to pay visits to the
region, including Azerbaijan," said he.
"The American side wants Armenia and Azerbaijan to at least agree to
hold a high-level meeting. But it is difficult now to say how the US
will succeed to persuade the sides to hold such a meeting," he added.
It comes after the Russian langue online daily Nezavisimaya Gazeta
(Independent Newspaper) cited Azerbaijani sources saying that the
next meeting between Serzh Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev may take place
through the mediation of their French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy.
"The proposal was made during the French leader's regional visit. It
was discussed and confirmed by Russian and US presidents," the source
had said.
However, the paper also quoted an Armenian Foreign Ministry
spokesperson dismissing the report.
