The meeting of the presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia in Paris was
constructive, useful and frank, the Armenian Foreign Minister Edward
Nalbandian said, Times.am news website reported Oct. 28.
"We thank the French President Francoise Hollande for organizing the
presidential meeting on Nagorno-Karabakh issue in Paris," he said.
"This is the third such meeting in the last 3 months, and it shows
that the co-chairing countries are decisive to continue their joint
efforts on settlement."
Nalbandian said many issues regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict's
settlement were discussed during the meeting in Paris. He added that
the discussed issues also included the confidence building measures,
which were proposed by President Hollande in May and approved by
the co-chairs.
On Oct. 27, Paris hosted a joint meeting of the President of Azerbaijan
Ilham Aliyev and President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan with the OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs, the Azerbaijani president's official website
said.
Afterwards there was a meeting between the Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev and Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan.
Thereafter, the French President Francois Hollande, Azerbaijani
President Ilham Aliyev, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and the
OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs held a joint meeting.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.
As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied
20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and
seven surrounding districts.
The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs
of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the U.S. are currently
holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented four U.N. Security Council resolutions
on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
