    Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia met in Wales


    Baku, Fineko/abc.az. President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev met with
    President of Armenia Serzh Sargsian and US Secretary of State John
    Kerry at the NATO Summit in Wales.

    During the tripartite meeting in Newport the parties discussed the
    situation in Nagorno-Karabakh and efforts to resolve the
    Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict.

    According to Marie Harf, spokesperson for the US Department of State,
    Kerry expressed his strong concern for the recent violence along the
    Line of Contact of Azerbaijan and Armenia.

    "The United States believes that the cessation of hostilities and the
    normalization of relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan will bring
    peace and prosperity to the peoples of both countries, and will
    contribute to stability in the South Caucasus. With these goals in
    mind, Secretary Kerry urged the Presidents to strictly respect the
    ceasefire and take additional steps to prepare their publics for
    peace", - Marie Harf said.

    Secretary Kerry encouraged the Presidents to work with the OSCE Minsk
    Group Co-Chairs, who are committed to helping the sides reach a
    peaceful and lasting settlement. He called on the sides to enter into
    a more formal negotiation process under the auspices of the Minsk
    Group Co-Chairs as proposed by the Swiss Chairman-in-Office at the
    OSCE.

    "A sustained process is necessary to increase trust between the sides
    and build momentum towards a lasting peace that the people of the
    region deserve", - Kerry said.
