14:57 * 10.08.14
An Armenian-Azerbaijani-Russian presidential meeting has started in
Sochi, Russia, Armenian Presidential Spokesman Ara Saghatelyan reports
on his Twitter page.
The trilateral meeting between the presidents of Russia, Armenia and
Azerbaijan focused on the current situation in Nagorno-Karabakh
started Sunday in the Bocharov Ruchey residence in Russia's southern
resort city of Sochi, RIA novosti reports.
The meeting comes amid sharp ratcheting up of tensions along the
contact line of Nagorno-Karabakh with Azerbaijan which led to
casualties on the both sides.
On Saturday, Azeri President Ilham Aliyev and Armenian leader Serzh
Sargsyan held separate meetings with Vladimir Putin. During the
negotiations the warring sides exchanged opinions on the situation in
the region. Aliyev said that the conflict has dragged on and required
an immediate solution and Sargsyan blamed the Azari side for
"intentional escalation of the situation."
Moscow in its turn also expressed concerns about the situation in
Nagorno-Karabakh, which, according to Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov
remains "tense and volatile."
According to the Defense Ministry of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic,
recent attacks in the past days have claimed the lives of 25 Azeri and
five Armenian soldiers. The Azeri side insists it has lost 12
servicemen.
