    RUSSIA WILL ORGANIZE AZERBAIJANI-ARMENIAN TALKS; Presidents of Russia
    and Armenia met in Moscow.

    Negotiations between the presidents of Russia and Armenia took place
    in Moscow. It became the first state visit of the Armenian leader to
    Russia in the history of the Russian-Armenian relations.

    Serj Sargsjan said, "It is an indication that we are past the level
    of neighborly relations as such. We are strategic partners now."

    Dmitry Medvedev said, "We never have any problems with each other
    because we always treat each other as friends."

    Needless to say, Nagorno-Karabakh was discussed among other things.

    "I'm convinced that there are no alternatives at all to a fair
    settlement of the conflict by political means," said Medvedev. He
    recalled Russia's role as an intermediary in the Azerbaijani-Armenian
    talks and said that Russia was going to remain an active member of
    the OSCE Minsk Group and organizer of the contacts between Armenia
    and Azerbaijan.

    Sargsjan in his turn recalled that ten meetings with President of
    Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev had been arranged with Medvedev's help. "Three
    statements were signed, documents that preserved fragile peace and
    promoted restoration of trust between our countries."
