within the framework of the OSCE MG. There were moments, when we were
close to solution of the problem, but something went wrong and it had a
negative impact on the negotiation process,” Armenian President Robert
Kocharian stated in the course of a joint news conference with Finnish
leader Tarja Halonen. He noted activation of the negotiation process
and added there are certain hopes for attaining peaceful settlement of
the issue. In her turn the Finnish President said if the parties come
to agreement, there is an opportunity of deployment of international
peacekeeping forces in the Karabakh conflict region. Tarja Halonen
also noted the amount of work the international community has to carry
out for peaceful settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Speaking
of the Armenian-Finnish relations, R.

Kocharian said he hoped for the visit of the Finnish leader encourage
further development of the bilateral cooperation. “Our relations
may develop within the EU context and I hope Finland will promote
EU-Armenia cooperation, especially taking into account that Finland
