Russian and Armenian foreign ministers will exchange views on the
issue of settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, RIA Novosti
reported on Apr.6.
The conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan 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 US are currently
holding peace negotiations. Armenia has not yet implemented the
UN Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the
Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian will visit Moscow on
Apr.7-8 and hold talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov,
RIA Novosti reported citing Russian Foreign Ministry.
During the negotiations, the two sides will discuss the relevant
issues of the bilateral cooperation and the international agenda,
the foreign policy coordination, the UN, OSCE, Black Sea Economic
Cooperation Organization (BSEC) and other multilateral forums.
"Fruitful cooperation has been established between Moscow and
Yerevan on the main global and regional issues," said Russian Foreign
Ministry. "The positions of the two countries are close or coincide
on the majority of issues."
"Hopefully, the visit of Armenian foreign minister to Russia will
become an important event in further developing the bilateral foreign
policy dialogue, promote the strengthening of the Russian-Armenian
allied partnership," according to the remarks posted on the website
of Russian Foreign Ministry.
