talks between the two countries over the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Vestnik Kavkaza discussed the issue with Armenian and Azerbaijani experts.
According to Azerbaijani political analyst Professor Fikret Sadykhov,

His approach is shared by Armenian expert Sergey Minasyan. According
to him, such a meeting cannot lead to a resolution of the conflict,
but can establish a atmosphere of dialogue and mutual trust.
