/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The potential of peaceful talks on the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict settlement has not been exhausted yet. It’s important
for Armenia to recognize the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan,
which for its part should recognize the right of Karabakhi people
to self-determination," RA Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan said at a
meeting with EU Envoy for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby.

"Presidential elections in Azerbaijan and Armenia should not hamper
the negotiations. Candidates should not conceal their views from the
publics because of the fear to lose supporters. Positions should be
voiced precisely," he said.

"The European Union is interested in maintenance of previous
achievements for efficient continuation of talks. I concluded that
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev sees resolution of the conflict
after the presidential elections in both states," Mr Semneby said
for his part.
