Tendencies to understanding between the parties to the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict have taken shape, the chairman of the Federation Council of
Russia, Valentina Matviyenko, told Trend on Tuesday.
"We believe that it can be solved only through political and democratic
means. There is no other solution ... We believe that it is necessary
to continue negotiations and dialogue, but the main thing in this
negotiation process, in this dialogue is to restore confidence,"
Matviyenko said.
She said that to restore confidence between the two nations it is
necessary to involve intellectuals and cultural figures.

both countries, but it should be solved, because it has a serious
impact on security in the region.
The chairman of the Federation Council noted that Russia's position
on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is well known.
"We are members of the Minsk group as the mediators in the resolution
of this issue .... The current president of the country and his
predecessor made every effort to establish the negotiation process ...
and Russia will continue its efforts for a peaceful resolution of
the conflict," Matviyenko said.
