ASTANA, September 15 — Russian President Vladimir Putin believes that

counterpart Robert Kocharyan for their determination to search for a
settlement to the Karabakh problem. “I am very pleased to note that
you are going ahead with the dialogue despite the complex nature
of this problem. Preserving a high-level dialogue is important,”
the Russian president stressed.
