Jan 23 2012
Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan, Serge Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev,
have moved closer to finding a solution to the separation conflict
in Nagorny Karabakh, an Armenian-populated enclave inside Azerbaijan
which made a bid for complete independence in the late 1980s.
They said this in a joint statement Monday after emerging from their
tenth meeting with the President of Russia, which took place in Sochi
at a seaside residence of Dmitry Medvedev.
Both thanked Russia, France and the United States for their mediation
in the Karabakh conflict. In 1994, Russia was instrumental in bringing
about a ceasefire in Nagorny Karabakh.
