MARGARYAN: MEETING OF ARMENIAN AND AZERBAIJANI PRESIDENTS DOES NOT INSPIRE BIG EXPECTATIONS

Meeting of the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents in Bucharest to
negotiate on Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement does not inspire
big expectations, Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan stated.

“However, I consider it to be possible that there will be no regress
and time will show whether progress will be recorded,” the Armenian
premier stressed. Also, he expressed confidence that the results
of the negotiations would not be able to exacerbate the Armenian
internal political situation, and, moreover, to create conditions
for conducting extraordinary parliamentary elections.

It is worth reminding that th emeeting of Armenian and Azerbaijani
presidents began on June 4 and it is still continuing. Yesterday’s
tete-a-tete meeting lasted for about 4h. The meeting takes place in
the framework of the Black Sea Dialogue and Cooperation Forum’s summit.
