The reports saying that Armenian President Robert Kocharian has
recently had a telephone conversation with US State Secretary
Condoleezza Rice are wide of the mark, the spokesman for the Armenian
president, Viktor Sogomoyan, has said.
He said the two had last discussed the Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper
(Nagorno) Garabagh conflict in February prior to the latest round of
talks between the two presidents.
The discussions held by Presidents Ilham Aliyev and Robert Kocharian
in the French town of Rambouillet in February turned out fruitless,
as the parties failed to iron out issues of principle.
“It appears that authors of this information have simply got the time
wrong,” he said.
